Carbon Parts
 
I never got my R3, but I did manage to buy up a bunch of parts. I have stuff just sitting around and its not doing me any good, and its not going on an RX8 of mine anytime soon.

Here goes:

Carbon Doors:
http://www.keycompositesgroup.com/im...d770-771cf.jpg
Asking $1000 (paid $1500)

Carbon Fenders:
http://www.keycompositesgroup.com/im...ff770cf_21.jpg
Asking $400 (paid $540)

Carbon Trunk:
http://www.keycompositesgroup.com/im...da/ct770cf.jpg
Asking $400 (paid $500)

Carbon OEM Flared Hood:
http://www.keycompositesgroup.com/im...zda/h770cf.jpg
Asking $425 (paid $540)


I live in Whiteford just below the PA line. You can pick it up, or I will box it up and ship it out at your expense. I'd much rather sell locally just to ensure nothing happens to the parts.

Take it all for $2000. ($2225 parts individually)

Thanks for looking!

goood dealz bump

falcons365 12-03-2009 09:51 PM

Thanks...

I almost had a red/ Carbon R3...I was soooo close. Things just didn't work out right for me.

Oh well, life goes on...

jessedrifter 12-03-2009 09:53 PM

what brand trunk?

falcons365 12-03-2009 10:07 PM

Its C-Wings Carbon. Its really nice and it sucks I don't have anything to put it on. I had the C-Wings CF Hood and Hardtop on my Miata and its actually really nice. Fitment was dead on...

X Rx8 12-04-2009 02:17 PM

I didn't think all these parts fit the r3?

Do you have any real pics of them?

falcons365 12-04-2009 02:36 PM

They should fit the R3, why wouldn't it?

volcomx31 12-04-2009 04:55 PM

i don't mean to trash your thread but my first CF hood was from c wings and it fit like shit..returning it was a bitch too

c41250n 12-04-2009 05:35 PM

shit....!! someone should buy it!

xl2oGel2x 12-04-2009 05:43 PM

seems kinda odd to buy so many CF parts before you even have the car. Lets face it your just vendoring these C-Wings parts......Your own public profile even says "Occupation: Slinging Carbon Fiber, Carbon Kevlar, and FRP parts..."

I think XRx8 might mean that not all these parts will fit the R3 cause it might have a different fit (bigger rear tail lights I think) idk...can someone confirm this.

In any case, gl with sale

Lol, I was wondering the same thing... I sure as heck would not buy so many carbon fiber parts unless I have the car... and I thought the R3 fender would be different in length compared to the SE3P's... correct me if I'm wrong but... good luck =D

Rotr8 12-04-2009 06:10 PM

I can confirm Russ is real and yes silly as it may be to buy parts ahead of the car, this is what he did. he works for a Mazda dealer in Abingdon and was nice enough to throw a get together at his dealership for our local 8 club all the way back in march, it was cold as fuck but we were all huddled around the grill.... Thsi was the g2g that on the way to the dealership Danomite blew his motor,,,

Nonetheless without fitment it will be a difficult sale. CF parts are hit or miss from co. to co. and platform to platform...

And yesthe doors, trunk, and hood parts will fit both an S1 and an S2 8,,,,
However the fenders will not, they will only fit onto the 04-08 model S1...

here are pics from that g2g,,,

If you look behind the white 09 and Dans WB you can see most of us huddled around the grill....

And Dans poor car,,,

And Aarons(Blackenedwings) car too before his T/C....

Rotr8 12-04-2009 06:27 PM

Russ I might come by and take a look at the hood one day after work,,, Im interested to see this flared style,,, If fitment is nice Ill take it, so whenever you have some free time let know,,,

I know that the fenders won't so I wasnt sure about the rest of the parts.

So no real pics?

T-ReX-8 12-04-2009 07:35 PM

If you live in CA where most of these deals go down, those parts would be gone.. Shipping would kill it!

Great prices though!

TeamRX8 12-04-2009 08:50 PM

I've already worked out a price for the whole lot shipped, but need to confirm weights before closing thdeal and he doesn't have a scale. If someone local can help out I'll compensate you for your time and expenses. Rotor8?

kersh4w 12-05-2009 01:26 PM

i got you mark.

let me return all the favors you've bestowed upon me. :)

dsire4u 12-05-2009 02:25 PM

jaisy207 12-05-2009 02:44 PM

CARBONRX-8 12-05-2009 06:44 PM

The OP seems to be on a sabbatical :dunno:

TopGear8 12-05-2009 07:19 PM

^Now I know you wont be using them in STX...Getting them and saving them for SP?

TeamRX8 12-05-2009 07:28 PM

Only legal in FP or XP, or EM ;)

TopGear8 12-05-2009 07:35 PM

Yeah thats what I ment :)

jonni44 12-06-2009 01:00 PM

how much work is needed to install the doors? im kind of interested in the fenders, trunk, and doors i just hate i cant see how they fit.

Rotr8 12-06-2009 02:18 PM

^ did you read post #16?

jonni44 12-06-2009 02:36 PM

^^^ Sorry, wrote the LSAT yesterday, i cant comprehend what I read for shit these days. I read that post 4 times before figuring out it said he has a deal pending lol my bad.

Rotr8 12-06-2009 02:38 PM

It must have been a real good deal too because I pm'd the op before Team about the hood and havent heard a word about it,,,

TeamRX8 12-06-2009 03:13 PM

no deal done yet, he hasn't responded back and I'm starting to have 2nd thoughts so maybe ...

kersh4w 12-06-2009 03:17 PM

NO!

no second thoughts!

you will buy this! and you will post pics!

and it WILL BE SEXY!

TeamRX8 12-06-2009 03:23 PM

this would be for a future project so pics would likely be a year away

jonni44 12-06-2009 04:10 PM

Im very curious too, a cf front lip, hood, fenders, doors, side skirts, diffuser, trunk, and wing would look so hot right now (its what i was planning on my velocity red) oh well i have my hood but i guess its back to the drawing board on the rest.

kersh4w 12-06-2009 04:19 PM

:cussing:

you are breaking my heart man!

you could at least test fit stuff, so you know if stuff fits. yeah? yeah you could. :Peace:

TopGear8 12-06-2009 05:51 PM

^Mark just wants the Rear doors so he can act like he drives an Audi R8 :)

Rotr8 12-06-2009 08:43 PM

Im curious about the hood and its flare, Panspeeds and the AutoExe hood have simular flares at the rear as well. I have yet to see any on an 8 on this forum,,,

Everything just swaps over...probably just takes time transfering it all over.

LOL, hey, thats a good idea!

TeamRX8 12-07-2009 06:51 PM

Sorry, I'm going to pass afterall. Best wishes to anyone who gets this good deal.

T-ReX-8 12-07-2009 07:37 PM

You have any hook ups with shipping, or is this stuff going to cost an arm and leg to get out? I'm interested, just trying to see how it would translate to being shipped all the way to the west coast

TeamRX8 12-07-2009 08:54 PM

It was very reasonable, he gets a very decent flat rate, I assume through the dealership. His shipped price for the whole lot can't be beat.

kersh4w 12-08-2009 01:21 AM

his price in general cant be beat. $2000 for $3000 worth of stuff?

sheesh. so tempting. but what makes me not go for it (besides not having the money) is that i cant imagine cf doors are that safe in an accident.

The 4 mammoth boxes translates to about $405 to the left coast.

Meh, getting t-boned in anything bigger than a smart car would be pretty much game over regardless of having cf doors or not. If you have the money go for it, cf everything would look very unique, and I like unique. :shocking:

Think how baller status your corpse would be though!!! :ylsuper:

falcons365 12-09-2009 07:59 AM

Still sitting on all these parts...and I will split it up. I'd love to see it go to one person, but I know thats tough. If 4 different people want 4 different parts, I'm ok with that.

jonni44 12-09-2009 06:03 PM

Fuck, I would love to take those off your hands, Im sorry, it being christmas and all I just dont have the cash :(

SCRATCH 02-12-2010 03:50 PM

do you have actual photos of your parts? cus these are the same photos from www.aerokits.net (chaser aerodynamics)

epikeddie 02-12-2010 06:53 PM

And you know that Falcon365 IS from Chaser Aero right?

I'm not going to trash talk on this forum, but let's just say that those CF doors will weigh the same as your OEM doors.

We had a well-respected member in the Miata community who has a full Pitcrew, full-carbon Miata order CF door cards from Chaser Aero.

What came to us was nothing more than a sheet of carbon sandwiching fiberglass in between. Mods.....this is definitely an attempt to sell their products on this forum without paying their sponsor fees.

I've seen their quality and I've weight their "carbon" parts. I'm sure Team backed out because he found out as well.

If you guys want a REAL composite manufacturer, let me know. The same member I was mentioning has CF fenders, doors, hardtop, rear quarters, hood, and trunk all made by his private guy here in Socal.

epikeddie 02-12-2010 06:54 PM

Oh......

He does have a Miata though. I don't recall him owning a RX8 though.
