Carbon Fiber Front "DTM" Splitters.


at UCLA... i have about 400+ feet of carbon fiber left over from the Human Powered Vehicles project that i can use to make some stuff,
if anyone would be interested in it, just let me know,
and i can go about making a few dozen or so ..
mainly it's just "foh sho" but maybe at speeds of over 130, it would help slightly in the downforce of the car..
pricing would strictly be labor (paying for my time) and realistically you can get a set of these "canards" in real carbon fiber with mounting brackets for like $50 or something.

any takers?

i'm also going to be making myself a carbon fiber touring wing, with adjustable aluminum brackets..
if any you all like that idea, just shoot the breeze over to my hotmail account, and we'll see what i can do within the next few weeks,

oh well. just a couple of ideas...

cheston id be very interested.... i lost my icq and aim lists due to formatting my comp... shoot me an aim if you dont mind....

 

I might be interested...

 

Is that an intercooler on the 2k?

 

Hmm...custom DTM splitter by Cheston. I'm up for it. So are you saying it's going to be like $50ish? Anyway, I was going to make one out of 1/8" aluminum. I'll take carbon fiber over aluminum anyday =)

 

I want to get a 2002 next year and a carbon fiber wing would be great-looking on a Sterling Mist SE. Would love to see it when you're done.

 

cool,
i'll start with a prototype this week then.
heheh

prolly be 3 to 4 layers of CF thick,

or 2 layer with foam center for stiffness..

as for attaching it to the underside of the car....
i need to find hard points to drill into..

as for the wing. that will take a while. but. heck. it'll be fun!
epoxy! woo!

I remember telling you that you could get those from Europe in an issue of Max Power(UK edition). But making 'em yourself sounds a lot cooler.

 

YES!
i almost bought em from the UK. woulda cost me $190 US to get em,

plus they would just be plastic. :P

mine will be INDESTRUCTABLE!
15 layer CF hehehe.

I'm in, could you do something for the 5th gen or would this strictly be a 4th gen add on??

 

whohoo... count me in.

 

if its for a fourth gen, i'd be interested, but tell you for sure when start goin back to work

 

Chebosto, how about this: carbon fiber spark plug cover?? I think it would look alot better than just painting it. Im talking the whole thing letters included or maybe just a solid carbon fiber cover with no lettering, smooth surface.

 

the valve cover would be easy cuz its just a lid. u kno?

huh. ok. maybe i'll try that.
1) dtm splitter
2) valve cover
3) wing
4) front grill ?!!!? heehhee

 

Hmmm... I think Cheston has found a new hobby... LOL

 

a valve cover would be really cool... i would buy that

 

im interested, im in socal so i can just pick it up

 

im interested, im in socal so i can just pick it up

 

sorry for the double post...yay im a maxima enthusiast!!! rock on!!!

 

hey i am intrerested in the Carbon Fiber Front "DTM" Splitters, and spark plug cover...

 

CHEBOSTO how much would the spark plug cover cost??

 

arm & leg

really tho. i would have to make one first. then gauge how much my time with worth. heheh.

all proceeds go toward the MaximaDriver.com server fund...
heheheh.
