    Question! I have a 2015 rcf. I really like the newer model rcf tail lights. Which part of the tail lights on my 2015 model should I tint to give it that newer model look? I’ve seen photos of the red part tinted and some with only the white part tinted but I can’t make up my mind.

    With the GS-F OEM wheels you can powdercoat and add spacers.. that alone will change the look without breaking the bank.

    Hi Angel. So the only name sources for the artisan spirit fender duct panels and the rowen rear bumper extensions are from JJ Carbon fiber from Ebay. He does take 3-4 months to send. You can also go to Group A motoring for something quicker with better communication.

    Remember guys the point of Carbon Fiber is for a lighter AND stronger car part. Some manufacturers such as Seibon make Carbon Fiber hoods that aren’t full carbon fiber construction and weigh the same as OEM if not more I believe. Be careful which CF parts you buy.

    Do you ever worry about the fiber pieces falling off in the car wash? I live outside buffalo NY and there’s only one option of car washes “delta sonic” and wondering if they’ll fall off in the car wash? I also have to give you some props your really mechanical minded. I want the same steering wheel as you but don’t know I feel comfortable diy after seeing your tutorial, I’ll rip that ribbon wire for sure lol

    Yes sir, I’ve seen a few of your vids, doing a good job with them. I mean I guess the CF rep is a better deal as it’s CF for about the same price as I assume it includes shipping. Would be nice if they did a FRP for half price, I’d be all over it, lol.

    @@thehuangbros You would do the same thing to repair fiberglass as you would the CF, only issue is that the extra $$ you spent on the CF would be waisted since you would need to paint it. Do you have a link to your lip (also is it just the front lip he has or the whole kit...In FRP)I looked on eBay and I remember seeing that lip kit but from the pics and angles, I didn’t realize it was the same one. Looked like it had air scoops on the outside. I messaged the seller if they make them in fiberglass as I want mine painted and it would be stupid to pay extra just to cover it up.

    That is a very good question honestly. That has always been a counter argument question to this topic. If there are no more manufacturers then, there are none and we are just out of luck for causing that. We would just stick to vinyl visual alternatives for visuals at that point.
