+1 For the wiper cowl idea. I think that would look nice.

Carbon fiber roof skin. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Quoting thecman02:
The Trim Piece that goes around the Instrument Cluster would be interesting. Center Console would be cool as well as the other things already mentioned.

i would go for a spoiler, as well as bumpers possibly, with the center already hacked out. a few people mentioned full side cladding in CF...i would go for that. im guessing the AMG style is the completely smooth one? no ripples in it? im thinking of just filling in the ripples on mine with bondo or something cuz i dont like them...

What about doing an instrument cluster bezel with the dual 52mm gauge pods in the upper corners?

I would really like one of those as well even though I'd prefer the interior pieces to be made in a color matching material. When I get home tonight I will write these down and have a list of each to see where the most interest is.

the only things that would matter to me are large heavy pieces that can be made into large light pieces.

hood/trunk/fenders/doors are about the limit /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

being like a kid on tunerz and wanting CF door inserts = /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riaat.gif
