    Buddy with Grand Prix is pretty industrious and had me pick up a set of roof rails a couple months back for him. I wondered why he hadn't put them on his car until tonight when he showed up with a pair of B.A.D.A.S.S. carbon fiber rails -custom made.

    He did these by hand, but is thinking of making a mold to make more. If he does I've got dibs on the first pair.

    that was my plan... get some rails... sand smooth and prep for paint and have my buddy with a vinyl shop order in some 3M CF and wrap them and a couple other choice parts

    For practical purpose its just a look so whats the difference.

    exposed carbon fiber is so damn gaudy. i dont get what people like about it.

    the whole point of carbon fiber is to have lighter body panels, not "hey, look i paid more for a ****ty looking part."
