Looks sharp but I think the red with black letters will look better.

Not to be a PITA but if you would please send me (or post) a photo from a distance that I could use to photoshop into my pictures (like I did before in Post 73) I'd like to see how it would look. Red/black might be a good look on my all blacked out 930.

That's some wiggly-wompus weave action you have going on in there Juice - do you vacuum mold these? I'm hoping this is a one off incedent...

The iphone camera a light refraction make it appear this way; it actually looks quite good. However, the nature of a bi-color fiber weave is difficult to get perfect and this piece was done quickly merely to give everyone an idea of color. Regardless, we dont plan to offer this weave anyway, except possibly as a special request.

sorry, but I got confused here, specially after you posted the red and black weave. Is this picture and your reference here, of the read with black letters, or the red/black weave?

That's the red and black weave - the red kevlar has not come in yet. The red kevlar is available for preorder on the website.

While this was due mainly to a rush to get the "prototype" kevlar/cf reflector done it should be noted that even $3m super cars have weave that gets wavy here and there especially on a rounded edge. Our parts are vacuum bagged, but also due to the difference in tensile strength versus durability, the kevlar waved on the edges when the carbon flexed.

Such as the rear on the Pagani, waves do happen even to the best of them:

Art, good to hear your happy! We can't wait to see the install pics! Juice is doing a bit of road testing with our prototype red/black reflector! I'm sure he'll chime in with pics soon!

Photo's of it on my car

Juicer: I still need to do a little more weather stripping adjustment due to my custom RSR rear deck lid. But over all it installed without issue; your need to be very carefully with the top edge and not flex it during mounting or leveling. But I'm happy with the look, here a (3) shoots.
Questions drop me a email or message

Thumbs up Bump

Rodsrsr: Car looks great, I will update mine with a full shoot maybe later today or Monday. After seen you shoots, I need to redo the black around my lens to bring out better the contrast. I've seen that car before; it looks really nice!
