What would you pay for carbon Fiber side panels? hood?

[Wheel House Motorsports]

I am just curious what people are willing to pay these days as skinz seems to be selling tons of tube/mesh products for top dollar and was curious what people were willing to drop on a set of carbon side panels as well as a center hood. they are light to start so you can only drop like 1# per side as well as maybe 2# on the center hood peice.

I am really interested in a cf hood for my pro that would also replace the stock head lights with high power LED lights and a mount for the gauge. You should be able to drop 10lbs with that. The side panels would have to be loaded with vents and super strong for me to be interested. 1lb weight loss is only worth $100 to me.

Just curious, is that $100 more than the stock side panel price and $200 more than the stock price of the top piece? So $400 more than the three stock pieces? or $400 total?

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I figure about $100 a pound for weight loss on average. If a side panel is only 1 pound lighter it is only worth a $100 difference if that is the only advantage. If I needed side panels I would pay $100 more than stock but I have never needed to swap out side panels so I would be a hard sell. I bet side panels would be at least $700-900 each in cf. Now that hood would be worth around a $1000 to me with led lights and a gauge holder.

very true... kind of forgot that is a general rule of thumb on these things... wow we spends lots of money. lol.

how much would it cost

I think he is doing a market survey to figure out what he could sell cf parts for if he built them and maybe what the demand would be.

i know, want to know how much if i need some slightly custom built ones

i play with it on the side for my own stuff right now and just curious what people are willing to pay for stuff to see if it would be worth it to build some. the center hood is definitely where its at, just lots more mold making time going into it with the headlight delete setup.

and WYO, PM me and we could figure something out. custom is something i love.
