Carbon Fiber amp rack, or at least just the cover portion, door inserts, gauge pod to cover the overhead lights (AVC-R, SAFC), and a shifter surround.

That piece is welded to the car. You need a hacksaw and an angle grinder to get it off, and then you have nowhere to bolt a new one.

Touche'

Unless the CF was formed around a metal piece or several that run the length of the part. Then that metal could be welded back into the stock location.

That said, I wouldn't buy it. It would be destroyed so quickly on anything that gets driven that it wouldn't be funny. It seems like it would be silly to put it on anything BUT a pure show car. I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, but IMO it's useless and ...*gulp*... ricey, again, unless it was on a pure show car. If you are looking for weight reduction, just cut the stocker off. Just my 2 cents.

How 'bout a small sub with passive radiator enclosure that fit behind the seats in the storage pockets? Or an Intake Manifold? - I've seen it done and think it looks slick... Maybe even the side intercooler/intake scoops in front of the rear wheels?

If I keep my car, I'd love to get a CF sunroof for a MKII someday.

I dont know if this has been brought up, but i would like to see some Fuse Box covers.

Is this thread still being taken seriously? Have any of the parts here been produced or anything?

I didn't feel like going through all 130 posts

Id like to see a CF flushmount HID kit, it would be really weight reducing if it got rid of the light motors too.

I woulkd like functional stuff. I think a total set of well-designed underbody panels would be sweet. Flat underbody panels w/ a rear diffuser would ROCK.

This would take some knowhow and prob. some mimicktry (spelling?) or a ferrari or something but would be CRAZY sweet and add to the handling of our cars at high speeds. I'd drop some serious cash on one that was functional and looked good.

I also think interior pieces are sweet too, but nothing outside of OEM. an OEM dash would rock, as well as door panels. This being both for MKII's and MKI's. The MKI's are hard to find decent interior pieces for.

Most of all I want the underbody panels/diffuser. If you can get me a complete one of those that fits and bolts up easily, I'll even fu*k you for them .
