SoCalCarbon has 500E (124.036) widebody kits in fiberglass or carbon fiber, but I think shipping to Europe could be pretty expensive. At least the Euro dollar is strongly in your favor, lol:

Yes The Swedish kronor is relatively strong now... I think $1 is 6kronor :P that means everything's almost half price because it used to be 10kronors to $1

ahhh yeah...unless you have a hook up, CNC machining is not an inexpensive proposition. There is nothing cooler however....except for carbon fiber layup, which is equally cool...

Those pedals are pretty cool and they look like the ones on the Carerra GT. Can you explain to me why these pedals are selling for $4500?
