Dear Mr. Dailey:

In fact, all of our goods are use high quality carbon fiber cloth and glue.

Carbon fiber fenders are more lighter than OEM ones

I'm sorry, but the only thing I can think of when I read those e-mails is this:


For me, the fact that they tell you the fenders are "more lighter" but don't tell how much confirms my suspicion that they don't save much weight. Course, I still could be wong; fu-ra-ra-ra-ra...

Well of course theyre lighter. That should come as no surprise. But it will be like replacing our hoods with carbon fiber. You dont save but a couple pounds tops. I still would never rock full carbon fenders tho, i think my hood is ricer as it is but i do love it.

Don't let Jody down. You know you want them!
You could just cut some vents out of your OEM fenders for some weight reduction.

Painted fenders would be best IMHO.

I think the console pieces go over the OEM trim, not a replacement like the fenders appear to be.
