I have the contacts to have these parts made, just no time to facilitate things like that right now.
I saw a couple guys in a Ford Festiva with no doors, windows the other day, looked like fun.
dry carbon, pre preg, tomato, tomahto hehe

let's put it this way, it's lighter and stronger than wet carbon and you can't make the stuff without an autoclave
