Beautiful isn't it guys? I love the red mirrors - reminds me of the GT350R-C

Posted on Rennlist but worth a shoutout because this stunning R is uniquely tastefully done... and with the roll bar & harness, this better see the track! :thumbsup:
I wonder if this is [MENTION=20957]MLA[/MENTION]'s car.

Definitely not a wrap.

Considering who did the car, one would assume they popped molds off the stock parts and made new components. This wouldn't be a huge deal for a composites specialist which they likely have.

What could also have been done is the stock parts prepped, wrapped in carbon and coated in resin. If done correctly it would be hard to tell any difference and you wouldn't have to deal with replacing or molding in stock fasteners. If I had to guess I'd bet on this being what they did.

I dunno... I get excited seeing Rs with purposeful track modifications, not Cars & Coffee carbon bling. $100 says that roll cage is for show; nobody who tracks a car would replace their front lip with carbon. The OEM front lip is a plastic, unpainted consumable by design.

Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful car; I guess I'm just not the target demographic for that kinda thing.

Interesting that the rear valance doesn't fit the cover any better that the oem part.

Edit: Actually, the more I look at this, the more I think that maybe they wrapped the OE parts in carbon. The rear valance fits (doesn't fit) in exactly the same manner that the OE part doesn't fit. I think if they went through the trouble of making complete CF replacements, they would have adjusted that slightly.

PS - Ford should offer a CF package on these. Cadillac has it for the ATS/CTS-Vs.

Looks like a seam here - I vote for wrapped stock parts, but the wing looks like it might be something else; doesn't seem to have the same lines as the OE part.

I'm betting they sanded down the stock parts and wrapped them or hydro dipped them.
