I would get with 4DR and see what he can make happen.  If you have CAD drawings and/or a sample you can send to him, even better.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Actually that wasn't my guy...
I never used him to sell anything to you guys, I found a different guy who did good work BUT wouldn't get the SHO cover, he just wanted to use the regular one without the SHO emblem.

That's probably because to get a good carbon fiber weave design you're going to need to get rid of any non-flat surfaces or sharp edges, it's the same with this genuine carbon fiber cover. It does leave options for custom final lettering that can be applied and cleared over though.

Such a tease :)  Just remember we expect 3 products:  intake, exhaust, and engine cover!  So you have to re-arrange your priorities :P

Lol I try ;). Unfortunately no exhaust, the intake has been redesigned (again) for the final time (hopefully) and is just a matter of getting one of the components manufactured in larger numbers.

Concerning the carbon fiber, along with the engine cover I plan to make a battery cover and also am looking to do some interior pieces as well. Here's another update on the engine cover:


Any updates on this?  Anxious to see the engine cover with the clear coat .... And installed.

Just started clearing the cover, needs a couple stages of wet sanding and clear then buffing to a polish.

Looking super!  When you've got it done so you have a time estimate let me know when you want to start on mine! .... Seriously.

First step is to create a battery cover, anyone have any designs concepts in mind or currently have a battery cover to show off?
