Carbon fiber parts?
 

Does anyone know if carbon fiber parts wil be a dealer option? If it is not, what parts would you like to see made of carbon fiber? I'm thinking the rear spoiler would look nice

I doubt it and if so it'll be heavy cf not the good stuff.

Considering that this car was made to be cheap, CF options would drastically change that.


TRD does have that beautiful CFRP Strut Brace. It's pricey though...

What about aftermarket? I'm trying to gauge interest in what parts people would like to see in carbon fiber. I know a manufacture that can produce cabon fiber parts and want to know if it would be worth it

Trunk
Spoiler
Hood

Pre preg? Otherwise no care.

And if pre preg I doubt so anyways due to pricing. Not worth it for most.

I'm function > form though.

Flat undertray, "real" diffuser, body panels, seats, dash?

I would love a carbon dash... How much would that save?

Do not see a point unless you wanna bling bling your car a bit

Hood and trunk are aluminum already I believe so almost no weight savings for price

CF duckbill would look sexy tho

Too shiny. Needs moar flocking. :)

How are you going to drive after installing that? You'll be missing an arm and a leg! :lol:

I was considering a Siebon CF hood. We have one on the TC in our showroom. Super light. But hearing the FR-S is coming with an aluminium hood, I've changed my thoughts.

One thing I would love...
Oh... wait a minute. $12,000!

I just want to have the option to win AMLS races with my daily driver. You never know?

I would like some "real" carbon fiber to replace the phony carbon fiber on the dash. Would look good, but probably pricey.

I've heard people say the trunk is aluminum but I haven't been able to confirm this anywhere. Do you or anyone else have a source?

Ideally it would have aluminum or reinforced plastic front fenders, an aluminum trunk, and a carbon fiber roof. But as far as I know those parts are all steel on this car.
