I work as an engineer at an aerospace company, and we sometimes have alot of graphite off fall (scrap) that can be in decent sizes 36"x36" is about the largest I've seen.

Is there any want for small CF parts for 944s? what would you guys like to have?

 

CF gauge pod to replace the center speaker on the early cars, A pilar gauge pods.

 

Hey Dan, how about a nice lip spoiler for the 951/S2 that sandwiches between the lower tray and fascia. The full replacement type bat wing w/ lip spoiler is too large for economical shipping. I would'nt mind a CF rear tailight piece(please no lights) w/ opening for license plate. Something to match the overall shape and smooth out the rear.

 

turbo script badges, my plastic one is really weighing down my rear

 

mirrors

 

intake manifold, IC pipes...

Are you serious about making this? We have had too many people ask and never come back with a finished product ( like carbonfiber1). You better be able to produce results if you're here asking.

If you are serious,

944 s2 wing for an N/A 944 (hatch mounting is slightly different)

 

Headlight buckets for Wes' project!!!!!!!!

 

a better dash trim kit

 

Wheel spacers.

 

Chevy badges.......

 

I second that!

BTW, They are getting welded and test fitted tomorrow

 

Does that mean i get a second prototype set when they're done!?

 

I'm very serious about making parts however, its something that I'd do on my saturdays off. Things that have very complex geometrys won't be done because I don't have the resources or time. And stupid ricey stuff won't be done namely because I'm a firm believer that form should follow function. My thinking was along the lines of bracketry where you would actually use the properties of CF to your benefit, not the bling blingyness because most of what we use is unidirectional (not woven).


AznDragon: I don't have an early car to work with, whats the center speaker setup like? A gauge bracket is doable. An A pillar one is not.

Steve: Were the center lights an option, or a turbo thing? My car doesn't have them. That might not be too bad to make. CF isn't a good material to make a chin spoiler out of. ABS would be much better because when you curb it, it will bend and not break.

testarossa: done, please paypal me $650.00 and they will be shipped this weekend. thats $100/letter, plus a $100 lot charge, plus $50 handling fee

OriginalSterm: functional mirrors that cut down the frontal area and weight won't be so pretty, but I might be able to make a bracket to mount currant aftermarket ones to.

Eyal951: Not the best material to use. A CNC'd AL flange w/ alum runners would be better. The CTE differance between graphite and alum is huge, and I suspect the manifold would crack.

pikey: headlight buckets are a definate maybe, and the chevy badges are done as well, please paypal me $800, $100 for the badge, and $700 for disgracing chevy owners everywhere

Stig: paint yours black

Porsche-o-phile: why graphite? Its doable, but at .003" per ply, thats alot of work to get what .25". I think Alum is a better option, and why the ones on the market are so spendy, I dunno.

Wes: email me your solid model ( sales@americanautosport.com . . . website I started before I got a real job). I have SW2003 (and maybe 2005) at home as well as Wildfire here at work.



Again, bodywork type things are hard to do, and that means expensive, but if you guys can come up with simple (2D) things, they can be had for next to nothing.

 

almost forgot: RMills, what exactly is differant, and are you looking for the spoiler to be made of graphite or a mount to adapt an S2 wing to an NA???
