I have developed front and rear bumpers side skirts and fenders so far and plan to develop hard top gas flap doors mirror housings hood and trunk also is there any interest from the community as far as purchasing these products? I will pay for cost of development buying original parts and molds all your cost would be would be the cost of manufacturing and shipping.... I'm curious to see if anyone else would want any of these parts for their car? I have no intent to sell in this post only to gauge interest in potential sales.

I'll reply since its always so slow here. For me I have zero interest in CF panels.

Pete and I see "eye-to-eye" quite often, this is yet another of those instances...

Sorry, John. Given that I'm not going to race the car, I would have no use for the carbon fiber panels.

May would be interested in a very attractive light AMG style 3 piece rear deck spoiler in carbon. Actually I think a one piece similar to the 70 z/28 camaro may also look nice.

Carbon fiber doesn't have to be used just for racing it can be a cosmetic enhancement and is quite popular as such now.

Carbon fiber is lighter which would result in better gas milage and handling for your car.

Pete S

While some find CF panels to be an enhancement I see it in the complete opposite manner, if its a little touch of CF here and there such as side view mirrors, vent garnishments, diffusers, I can live with it but mostly on sports/supercars, as I think it looks dumb on civics and most every car you see people putting CF on these days. Entire panels in CF just look stupid to me, sorry looks like you spent all your money on CF and ran out of money for a paintjob.

As far as gas mileage goes, if you drive a V8, gas mileage should not be a worry, if it is then you are driving the wrong car. Will help slightly on handling due to lower weight but there is a lot more you can do to the suspension with less money and much greater results.

Currently in the process of making new carbon fiber parts which should result in my car weighing 2300lbs after parts... It will include (including already developed parts) front and rear bumper side skirts fenders doors gas flap roof trunk hood and seats mirrors and a pillars. Also will use a sparco carbon fiber steering wheel. Should result in my car running a 12.5xx which would be faster than even a supercharged r129 @12.8 on YouTube. That will be on a stock engine m119.960

1800 pounds of weight reduction? That's a huge amount. I wonder what it will do to the structural integrity of the car.

Euro Legends

At 3300lbs it's fine I'm not sure to be honest until I get there as for the lesser weight. I will keep everyone updated as I make progress.

They look well done, nonetheless not my "cup-of-tea"...

Thanks I understand

And yes they do seem very well made!

Hey I was wondering where I can get a carbon fiber fender for my r129 and how much?

126 Man

I have a 95 SL500, and it's awesome. I know my handle is 126 Man but that's because until now I've had several models of those and my favorite being the 91 560SEC. Well, that's gone now and I've a new girlfriend the SL! I was considering making fiberglass panels and saw you posted about CF! That sounds amazing! They looked good. What sort of cost? Thanks for your time.

Sula

Hi how much front bumper, back bumper and Fender for SL300 r129 ???? Looks good

Euro Legends

I am not involved anymore but I paid all the development costs for him and he’s Still making them.

if you’re close to Southern California I have rear bumper and side skirts but it’s still probably cheaper to buy from him.

I'm not really a exposed CF guy for body panels, but I used his endlinks on my SL600.

There's a lot to see in the photo.

Stainless resonator eliminator.

SEM boots on the rod eyes to keep the bad stuff out.

Stainless ARP bolts and lock nuts instead of the regular MB bolts.

HedgeHog has some really nice stuff.
