Decided I wanted to make my GT4 stand out from the crowd at shows and thought that some external carbon fibre detailing would be the way that I wanted to do it. Ive gotten a few parts together now with the most recent addition being Vincent_doggys carbon hood spoiler.
Im in negotiation with vince atm with regards to making a few more parts that would be made available to fellow 6GC'ers. Well, what do you think? The lacquer isnt milky but the pic makes it look that way in the foreground Sorry all the pics were taken in my garage but its dark out atm. -------------------- 1994 JDM GT4 WRC

Cheers zero07, I love white cars with carbon (black) accents
To be honest, I want to keep it subtle and the hood + hatch route would be too over the top for my taste. The hatch would save a lot of weight but the hood is unnecessary. Im more into the sleeper carbon look -------------------- 1994 JDM GT4 WRC

Delicious...that back CF piece just does a great job of breaking up the back of the car, especially since it's white. Delete the spoiler altogether, or only the riser blocks, and get a CF roof spoiler.

I already have carbon fibre seats, instrument bezel and tax disc holder. I dont have any further plans as yet to do the dash plastics or anything like that, though Im sure they will get done sooner or later.
