Hi all,

I would like to cover my door trims with some Carbon Fibre flat panels but have no idea where I can get them from? Im aware that you can get after market 'molded' ones (but they cost heaps) so I literally just need two flat pieces big enough to cover my doors and then i'll cut to size. Should be a lot cheaper! Any ideas on where I can get that sort of Carbon Fibre?

Cheers,

Glen

I honestly don't know how you could cover your door panels with flat unless you are just doing some of the inserts that are totally flat.

Seriously have a look around a doing some covering, but you are going to be surprised how expensive just the raw carbon material is. It is about $70-100 per square meter in oz and about $30+ in the US.

Oh sorry man I made a mistake, I ment to say that I have taken the original door trims off my car (i've pretty much taken everything out of my car...) and now want to cover it up with Carbon fibre flat panel.

Hi,

We have two flat panels available in Carbon Fibre. 80 x 80cm and 50 x 50cm. Both are 1mm thick sheets.

Please let me know if your interested.

Cheers,

Shane

Oh bummer they fall just short (well kinda) because I will need them more around the measurements of 110 x 50cm. :P

Rob from www.hybridcustoms.com.au here in WA makes a true Carbon Fibre universal door skin with the dimensions being up to 1200mm wide by 1000mm deep with 40mm lip, images below are the finished product made for an R35 and some photos of them being infused.

    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
