Carbon fiber parts from Covid boredom

Tomorrow. I have the vents on but it’s dark so won’t be able to see much. I’ll get the hood vent on in the morning.

Definitely going to get a set if I keep the truck....

I get that but do you know how many people said "I'd love to get a set, I'd be down for set, definitely want to get one, I have to get a set"? a lot. So until I see something that sounds definitive I cant speculate or I would have had to order 130 sets. Something you have to understand, I'm not a retail shop, I am doing this completely by myself, traveling every weekend for work, trying to understand the logistics of European companies. dealing with customs and forms, and emails about this. If I was a company charging 1100 for a hood vent alone I would hire a person and make life easier. This actually makes me not even want to do the Mirror replacements or order another round for the wait list. Its too much.

Snag, hang in there brother. I can't speak for everyone but I can assure you, all your efforts are very much appreciated. I think it's been suggested already but, I agree - relieve some of the headache and get a deposit up front.

I appreciate it, that day I was maxed out dealing with import agents... I'm all good now lol.. Hopefully this round goes easier. I have paid them to start the mirrors. so that's in the works. Going to order second order. Its a shame Big Blue wont allow an auction I think it went super super smooth and would love to offer that again to members that like it, but its not in their budget right now.. Hell I would even auction a glossy and matte set for that reason as well.

Snag sorry no videos. I downloaded your videos and I’m going to see if I can get my buddies son to stitch them together.
I’m thinking carbon gas tank lid
For the photos I’m trying the day is overcast, I’m hungover and nothing is really showing up.
To add to the tool list from Snags video:
-2 plastic wedges
-3m double sided tape
-painters tape (I used it to go over the exposed paint around the plastic pieces to pry on, sorry no photos but once you slip and scratch your paint you’ll figure it out)
-3m decal remover ($50 bucks for less than 5 minutes of use)
-1 drivers license & 2 credit cards (put them between the heal of the panel clip remover and the area under your existing cowl when you are prying out the insane amount of clips for the cowl. Did the Ford GT engineer work on this part of the truck!?!?)
I will get some photos tonight with the flashlight. I’m curious how much this thing glitters with the XL80s.
