Still incredibly interested in seeing those carbon fiber options, although for my own car I know I won't be going with the raw huracan style because I want it to match the interior carbon dash for the most part.

Design wise the piece could have the carbon meeting in the middle, or all one direction. I think the former is more difficult?

When I first saw you were making vents T, I actually thought you weren't going the carbon route and instead offering powder coating on another material but kudos for branching out. Could look slick matching some of the more vibrant wheel finishes, or any really, if carbon fiber isn't your thing.

introducing the Python. More aggressive vent length, more aggressive angle of attack, increased height, and a more aggressive angular shape. 100% carbon fiber construction will provide the strength/rigidity to delete the center support like the GT4 Mustang. I am a Porsche Fanboi, so incorporated some design elements from the GT2/3 RS.

Moving into 3D printing a test piece to get some real world confirmation. Make any needed adjustments and start working on the mold.

First run of these will likely be limited to 10-15 pieces with projected completion time around Thanksgiving. Pricing still needs some time to configure, but it will be super reasonable. Here is a pic of the Porsche inspiration.

You will definitely still have a 2x2 Carbon option to match your existing trim or previously purchased components.

cool thing is you will have an option to go with a matte or gloss finish :cool:

Can you do a rendering of it in the hood....Maybe alongside the factory. Just trying to get a feel for how much more it sticks out and perspective from different angles. Maybe when the printed piece is done.
