www.ultra-carbon.com has some stuff for regals and malibu's....prices are steep as the market for g body carbon fiber stuff hasn't gained enough traction! I wouldn't mind having the inner fenders for my cutlass though...they are badass!!!
yea those are really nice! to bad my passenger one has to be all cut up to fit the downpipe for my turbo
Agreed on the valve covers....i have went back and forth on putting some on my sbc, but hell i can get new carpet, boom mat and headliner redone for the same price when i have new valve covers sitting ready to be put on a fresh motor.
The wheel wells are sick but like you, i have hours spent on smoothing mine out to get rid of all the stupid nubs that i don't need anymore.

Years back i bought a sheet of real carbon fiber with 3m backing that i did my gauge cluster and all interior trim pieces with. Took time as usual but turned out sweet.
Yea i really couldn't justify cutting up a 600$ wheel well for a downpipe. plus unsure on how much heat it can handle.
Thats actually a really good idea. What was the cost of the sheet, and how/what did you use to cut it?
If i recall i think the sheet was around $60 and was about 18"x24" or so. I use a pair of very sharp scissors for the outline and a xacto knife for the detail cuts....time has to be taken because you are actually cutting through the fibers which are strong as hell!!! I usually make cardboard templates then transfer that to the carbon fiber so that i don't screw up and waste the material!
