okay, that sounds better. so what about that carbon headliner? and while you're at it, carbon pillars? i just hate having to clean that crap because it just seems to suck up all the dirt. a carbon headliner would be soooo much cleaner. just wipe it down and be done with it. let me know please
Cheers
that's a load of crap. plenty of car makers use dry carbon in production vehicles. GT-R R34 Z-Tune for one. just about the entire front end was dry carbon, along with structural braces, underhood brace panels, and a load of other parts. the new vette Z06 has carbon body panels, just like ferrari's, lambo's, and other exotics. given the places they use them, and the function of the parts, i seriously doubt it's anything but dry carbon. dry carbon is more expensive, but it's not like platinum or anything.
nice try though. get everybody believing that only F1 can afford this stuff so when you release the ungodly high prices, we'll think we're getting the best deal anyone's ever gotten on anything.

IMO it really depends on each application. For example if its just a cover for the A pillars its better to use wet carbon to keep cost down since you can make them thicker and it wont really make much of a difference. For sure dry carbon will be better just not sure if customers are willing to pay a higher price for it since its not really needed. That is why dry carbon will be perfect for the dash trim and center console. Dry carbon hoods can be done but your looking at $30K plus for just the molding cost. Cost of each hood will be very expensive. If the demand is there we will do it but most likely 99% of the customers arent going to pay 2-3K for a dry CF hood.

headliner wont work unless u
A. remove either front or rear windshield
B. make it 2 pieces
C. remove front seats center console & maybe u can get if through the door opening
there is just no way u will get it in the car unless one of the three on top are done
