    Like @4x4_Taco I’d love to swap out all of the stock “graphite” interior plastics with carbon fiber

    Cool carbon fiber parts would be great, almost as great as a bunch of cool 3d printed parts that were available and not always "sold out" ;)

    Cool parts are always awesome if they are actually available!
    :spending:

    Sorry had to say it.

    I second the hood scoop as mentioned by another member. Not the whole hood, but just the scoop portion. Seems like an easy small shape to start with.


    I think it would look killer on my MGM. I'll buy you a stock scoop for the mold if you send me the first product... let me know.

    Hey, I say this as an FYI and not to be the interwebs police... but terms like this are actually rather offensive and probably not something that should be used in mix company. My wife is asian, and while she nor I get offended with terms like this, it is rather cringe worthy.

    @mesojdm I think the flares are a great idea. Since so many people with 2nd Gens cut their fenders I would like to see them offered in a 2" cut out version. It would make the job so much quicker to just be able to cut the metal fender and then bolt on a 2" modified flare.

    First off, let me reiterate, it doesn't personally offend me. So, I'm not sure how much "lighter" I could be about it.

    Secondly, ya'll can keep on using termanology like that as much as you'd like. It's really no skin off of my back. I was genuinely just pointing out how it can be seen in poor taste, as some people may not realize it.

    Sorry if that rubbed you guys wrong.

    It’s good to be aware, and it’s good that people pay attention and try to be considerate. I’m fully on board with that, I say some foul shit, but not on a forum like this. Ricer stuff has earned its nomenclature ten times over to the point that its almost purely in the over the top vehicle arena. IMO.

    Speaking of Ricer's, I'm in for a carbon fibre spoiler/Wing for my taco. The taller the Better. For 4Lo downforce.

    Just kidding.
