CF VARIS "STYLE" Front splitter / Carbon Fiber Interior

Trying to gauge how interested the EVO owners would be in a front splitter made of real carbon fiber by a professional molder. It would look like the Varis unit but not identical. We are looking at building a mold and producing but would need to know what the interest would be.

Also pricing would be in the $375- $450 range as opposed to $568 - $700 on some others.

Here are some Pics of his work. 2G Eclipse parts

I dont think alot of folks realize how expensive it is to put together a mold for something that would only yield approx 15-20 pcs.

I dont think $350 would be worth this guys time. $375 is alot cheaper then $585

Well I'm working with the molder now. Problem being I have to get a design everyone is happy with before we proceed. I'm in talks with them now and Friday I will be sending him some other items that he will be molding right away.

1. Timing Belt Cover
2. Spark Plug Wire Cover
3. Center console top ( top portion where the shifter and ash tray are)
4. Heat/AC panel stock, or with gauges ( 52mm)
5. Upper dash trim piece ( where the clock is... and the piece where the fog light button is)
6. CF A B & C Pillars

As soon as I get a firm date on the production of the splitter I'll post here. Keep the inputs coming.

make some cf parts that fit both evo and lancer...then you will own both sides of the business...drop your prices lower than most and you are a god(ess). mold the evo 8 wing and drop the price and you got business.

All the interior parts should be the same. Except maybe the spot where the foglight switch goes, not sure havent seen the lancer. But I'm working that too. I just get alot of yeah I'm interested till it comes time to order then all that disappears. Not on this board necesarily but on another one. So hopefully this works out.
