Default Custom CF part maker in SoCal

Does anyone know good custom carbon fiber shop in SoCal area??

Depends on the size of the part too.. and whether it's dry carbon or wet layed.

modellista designs, never fails.

Those guys at extremem dimensions and carbon creations would probably only help you if you let them mass produce the item.

If your friend is a man, then you might be right. J/K.

Curtis owns Modellista, perhaps you're friends with Debbie. I won't speak for him, but they've had some trouble (as everyone else has) getting their hands on CF.

Hey, what's up Ryan!?

I see... you still have your Supra!
