pics of the new fenders
Well for the door dent I have a contact with a dent wizard guy that is really good and get that out without a problem. Got all the dings out of mine ( hate buying used ). As for the Body and Paint. My car is in now being painted. When it gets out take a look. I should have it back Thursday night after 5. Stop by I'll be putting my bumper and lights back on.
Carbon fiber is used for the skins, not typically the entire structure. There are a number of high end sportscars out there with CF skins.
Keep in mind that shattering also absorbs/deflects energy, e.g. the ceramic plates in body armor.

^ yep your right but you wouldnt really want to make the whole b-pillar structure out of it beacuase you dont want the structure shattering and completly collapsing in a roll-over 
sorry I'm not trying to be an *** but this is actually one of those few thing I can comment on and that I know about lol I guess being an engineering student has its perks (not much of a perk if you ask me haha)
*sorry for a the thread jack*
If you like it go for it but I'd quickly accent the rest of the car with some carbon fiber if i were you good luck!

Dont listen to them man!! I love the look of carbon fiber!! I plan on wrapping my whole rx8 in cf! maybe its the fact that your car is blue and it stands out so much. mines black so it wont. good stuff though!
low & slow. It's not terrible. It looks out of place due to nothing else is carbon fiber. But honestly, who the **** cares about what other people have to say. Do what suits you and keep going with it. Just make sure you buy more carbon fiber to let it match more of the vehicle.
if it's your time to go it's your time to go; regardless of cf being able to withstand blah blah blah. fitment looks great! it looks kinda sketchy on the car like shown in the pics, but with a cf hood I bet it'd look 10x better
It looks good, a little unfinished, perhaps if you get the CF doors, hood, trunk, bumpers, roof wrap on black vinyl and the 1/4 panels paint it black matte, it would look better. overall looks ok, and if you like it, it's what matters! oh and a set of bronze rims!
You should CF the whole car but the frame. You can get doors bumpers sideskirts trunk hood roof and gas door in CF. Then it would look better, I'm not knocking it though, just needs more work. Have you gotten any more cf since you started this?
