Question Interest in carbon fiber parts?

A good friend of mine owns a carbon fiber (Real carbon fiber) business (G3 Composites LLC). He & I have been friends for over 10 years (In real life).

We're both enthusiasts as well, of course. All supplies are sourced from the USA & all work is done in the USA (He is based in FL)

I am posting to gauge interest on what folks may want.

I'd be happy to become a vendor if there was enough interest.

I just sent him several pieces from my Corvette that I should have soon. Can't wait to get them back.

Here is a link to some of the work he has done:

Thanks,
Tom

Everyone should read, whether you're in the market for carbon fiber today or not, the "How to buy carbon fiber" post on G3's Facebook page:

This is interesting! I wish I had a bunch of cash, I would love to get some more carbon fiber parts! Just off the top of my head I would love to do doors, mirrors, front fenders... interior pieces would be awesome too!! I am assuming that this would be direct replacement and not just covering existing parts with carbon fiber... I drive a GD3.

Great. Now was that a custom job? Or was it a group buy?

If it was a custom job, how do I contact him?
