If there was, you'd find it on Stillen's site.

If one was made I would be 1st in line to get it. ABS front lip blows, I have a black car, with VIS CF OEM hood and CF aero kit would finish my cars exterior look completly. Someone should make a copy of it in CF, I know a few people who would be interested.

just a thought...

i suppose you could find something like a carbon fiber vinyl and wrap the lip in it. not sure if that would work or not

I bought the vinyl to do that, got a huge sheet. but it just doesn't look real enough for me to try to mess around with putting it on.

damn, i got all excited about this thread title, i was ready to put my unpainted stillen sides and rear up for sale (i could use a CF MT lip tho )

im sure it could be done, like by the guys that are doing our trunk, or TET, but thats gonna end up costing people a lot of money...im guessing the whole kit would be 2-3 times more expensive.

idunno about this...b/c if u make a prototype of it from the stillen one, u gonna have fitment issues.....b/c the stillen is poly and every car is different.....i had issues w/ my stillen lip to make it fit...a cf one would just cause alot of trouble....b/c u can't do anything to it....it's as is, if it fits great, if it doesn't, your SOL....

I dont know about that.
I know I do not have a 5th gen, but I have a CF Stillen lip replica on my 4th gen and it fits pretty well.
Its fits just as well as any fiberglass item would.

My whole kit is CF.

The mold is whats the real expensive part. So if you could find somone to make the initial mold the rest shouldnt be too hard.
CF itself is expensive, but overall its a cheaper route in the long run because it wouldnt need to be painted.

i would think the cost would go down in the long run being that alot of people would want the cf kit...if the 4th gen's have one then 5th gen's shouldnt be left out. i doubt people would complain about the couple hundred dollars extra for the cf version

You would think a lot of people would want it, but it doesnt appear to be so.
The 4th gen CF kit has been out for a while and I dont know of anyone other then myself who has it. Im sure somone else has it, they just havent posted pics of it yet.
In all, the kit isnt that expensive. The whole kit is only 850.00 shipped which is around what a fiberglass or polyt kit cost.

If you guys are really interested in it, and are willing to pay up front or at least throw down a deposit for it, I can shoot the idea to Jose at Ionicdynamics.

CF hood will soon be in and they would match

im gonna go nuts if this thing comes out. my car is in the shop right now getting a CF hood and the MT/Stillen kit installed. combined with a CF trunk and the CF eyelids, a lip kit would REALLY set it off.

althought it COULD be a carbon fiber overload too.

haha, clever. maybe you guys should talk to Jose after he is done with our trunks and see what they can do. of course, that would mean i might have to sell my kit tho, God damn you all.

what would it be tho? claudius is askin about for the 5th gen, but 5.5 guys will want it too, and no kit fits both.
