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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
