I don't think I will ever make anything like CF doors, maybe somebody else here would take that on... I may do the interior door panels, though.

My projects are on hold at the moment. The wife and I just bought a bigger house with a fairly large shop so I can be a little more organized with all of my projects. We need to finish moving everything from here to there before I start with the surround.

Also, it will work with the factory shifter, it just offers additional clearance with short shifters. I already have a prototype base done out of hardboard and I'm working on the CAD for the trim ring (more than likely a 2 piece, part above the base and part below) This will hold the boot in place and also keep the base from flexing.

I really think a guy could move some full CF doors. Maybe not all at once, but interest seems to be consistent. I bet you could move like 5-10 pairs in an initial offering, and keep like 10 pairs stocked. I bet you they'd move. Especially if the person offering was willing to take payments on them After all, ask sports' doors were over $3k.

FWIW, I know I would buy, even if I had to get another credit card to do it.

ask motorsports are only door skins not full doors and yes, they are about $1500 but you still have to get them shipped. so i would imagine for a full door it would be like $5k for the set. i have seen an english company make full doors but i think they were very expensive.

I thought the 1500 was per door. My bad. That's actually a rockin' price. Now if someone would just step up

What is the door "skin" exactly. Is it the whole main frame of the door, minus the interior trim? Asksport's doors looked like full doors to me. Here's the best pic I could find. The door sill area appears to be CF as well. That's why I thought they were full doors.
