I found a dope spot with some Red/Black Kevlar CF. Would love to wrap some parts like you did

ill try and get a photo of the door closed later, but its pretty much flush since its the same weather strip used on the GS. The parts are wrapped in real CF and then cleared.

Looks pretty sick man.

Is that a stock steering wheel? If not what brand or do you have a link to a sale site?
Also how did you do the handle bar lights?

damn. How's the feel on the steering wheel? If you have ever felt a BMW M steering wheel, is it anything like that? Looks like it has a fat grip from the photo haha. I've been looking to get a thicker steering wheel. Something that feels like the Ms

yep, feels a lot like the M wheel on my friend's M3. Inspiration for the wheel came from the M3 wheel and the Think Design steering wheel in the first photo here: http://think-design.jp/hi_grip_steering_top.html
