Carbon Fiber Trunk Lid 2

OK guys I did some research and went up to some certain companies that specialize in carbonfiber, and I got a response back from a very repituable company, Tabasco Racing. Here is there website to check them out -

www.tabascoracing.com

Anyways they will make the carbonfiber trunk lid for our lancers under a couple conditions. First off they will need a stock lid for 6-8 weeks to design, mold, and make the lids for the future. After that they can start selling the lids.

My job to get this done is getting them the lid and 5 preorders of the lid. They told me it will be $500 for the lid, and $40 for shipping. The lid will be complete replacement lid for the Lancer, and it will get rid of the key hole and top hole from the wing. It will latch fine in the stock placements, and it will work with the trunk popper in the car.

Let me know what you guys think and if you are interested please PM me or post here to let me know so I can start a list of people that are willing to do this.

List of confirmed people :

1. Kontradictions
2. ozrally101
3. psmokie68
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Hang with it, that car is freakin ugly. Did you see the stock interior, ugly color, and the freaking exhaust tip mounted on a stock muffler...sigh

spread the word out, I really wanna get these made, and I can only do it with the help of the peolpe on these forums. These trunk lids, would look sick on our cars, and we should get as many products made for these cars!

I didn't want to look like I was sweatin your car. I was very disappointed in the 2F2F car.

The carbon trunk would be awseome but I think that the CF thing is getting out of hand. IMO.. I have a Grey car anyway so it would be a waste for me. A white car would definitely look great with it....

well that is the thing if we can get these made, then they will be available to all future people wanting these, that dont have the cash. If you can come up with the money in 2 months, I can put you on the list. This guy just needs confirmations with 5 people and he will make it!
