Glad Payton asked first.
I would seriously consider a set as well, I bought too big of wheels for the front of my car . so rather than buy new wheels I think I should just buy wider fenders

I currently have two local sources doing my molds with CF & fiberglass pcs.. Lucky I found these guys.. Not cheap to make molds.. but in the end worth the weight savings.. Karl owns the molds & has given me permission to pop some pcs off the molds.. but again it might be expensive.. I do not have molds for the inner fender wells.. Brett from Fab53 pulled parts off the top layer.. New to the composite world.. Brett can explain it in better!

LOL Chris, in all the excitement, didn't get to say hi last Saturday at RTTC. I will hook up with you next time.

The fenders look killer! I did speak with Carl and he mentioned the weight difference is about 68 lbs, that's awesome!

By the way, we are working on some CF three piece wheels for the project that will be debuting at SEMA if all goes well.

Been a while since I have shared any updates on Blu... Got all the new composite front clip painted & almost finished installing.. The guy that did the molds & parts for us did a great job! Parts fit with very little modifications on the fit...

Pic of the molds...
