dry carbon oem airbox y u no do?

I want to do carbon fiber intake as Perrin intake. So will most easy.The lighter 86, the better.

good job! i tried making my own cf splitter 10yrs ago and it was such a bitch i never wanted to make another one by myself again. lol

Looks pretty up close not sure about the hood though.

Can you make some carbon versions of the BRZ fender garnishes? I see a few I like but the prices are too high for what's offered.

If you can make some carbon BRZ fender garnishes (no chrome, I plan to cut them into vents anyways) for a decent price, I'd buy a set for sure.

To me it doesn't look like the hood has been clear coated? Maybe that will help.

lol i was kidding but if you've got the time and skill why not haha

Prepreg??? THATS THE EXPENSIVE PREMIUM STUFF HYPERCARS HAVE ISNT IT :eyebulge: :party0030:

Nice parts though XD the hood and fenders don't look too pretty though.. Are you going to paint it or something?

I agree, don't look too pretty, there is a defect. But for me it does not matter. The main low weight.Hood weighs 2.159 kg (4.759 lbs) , fenders 0.5 kg. Paint is not going to, because that is overweight.

It looks awful and does not work properly. For this reason, removed intake.

extremely impressive!
