Hey Geolab, thx for spending my money! Are those full carbon fiber doors?
Looks like Viperbob has a set of panels for me.

The round pieces for door handle and pullstrap can be purchase at the dealer. APPBIZ sells everything but I got desapointed in their door handle and straps. The round covers keeped popping off so I had to bend the handle to make it straight. The strap was thin and cheap looking compared to original so I made my own.

If you want them to look fancy, there is this guy who can make the entire panel and all related accessories in carbon fibre..... Just like the dash kit.

Out of interest - what did you use to make your own pull straps? For the price, the APPBIZ ones can't be very good....

I've been water skiing since the age of 6 so as soon as I saw those straps, I knew I could do the same with life jacket belt straps. Went to a fabric store, got a 1 or 2 meters for 3$ and a kit to pop metal rings 3$. I soed 2 layers together and punched the hole and hammered the metal loop/ring and that was it. The strap is nice and rigid like the original.

Sorry only picture I have!!.... And a picture of carbon fibre RS panel and acc.

Thx for the info. I will be able to do the same thing with material from a local climbing shop.
Your car looks nicely set up, I like the GT3 seats in contrasting colors. What steering wheel are you running?
Oh, and the cf door panels are sweeeet. And well out of my current price range I'm sure!

Small MOMO champion. I say small cause I don't have power steering and it's rough at slow speed.

Here is a picture.
