finding carbon fiber parts

hey all, i know this has been brought up numerous times but all of the posts i have seen are at least 4 years old if not older. so i thought i bring it back.

are there any kits for rear seat deletes on a 4th gen 'lude? iv seen a carbon fiber wall that you cut to match your vehicle but i lost the site for it. but just regular seat deletes i think would look awesome.

also are there any full carbon fiber dashes out there for a 'lude? and not the stupid fake CF cover up kit, i mean a real carbon fiber dash or dash inserts.


my plan is to have carbon fiber door armrests and lower dorr panels, carbon fiber dash or dash inserts/trim, carbon fiber center console/trim, and rear seat deletes. if anyone know where i can find these or a place that will custom make them it would help a lot. i already have the CF front racing seats seats i just want the matching set now =)

Hope you have some major cheese saved up for all this custom carbon fiber. Ever since the war started the price of carbon fiber has gone up a lot... It sucks...

The rear seat delete is the only one that will make any functional difference, the rest is just a waste IMO. Contact JUN auto, they have a CF rear seat delete, it covers the area so that the cabin is separated from the trunk, but shipping is going to kill you.

im not too worried about the money, i am... but not that much lol. but yeah i dont want to do it so much as for performance, cause i know it wont do too much for me if i save any weight at all. but for the style and stuff and to say hey i have full carbon fiber interior! lol. im also looking for a good carbon fiber lip kit if anyone knows where i can get one. if not i might go with the JUN front spoiler


also the seat delete would save me A LOT of weight cause i have an 82lb sub box and 30lb amp rack. not to mention all the extra wooden stuff to make it look good in my trunk lol, im looking to take that out and put the speakers either in the carbon fiber or in the back side armrest things.

No CF lip kit exists to my knowledge other than the played out old spoon front lip but no sides or rear to match. Good luck with the JUN lip, rhdjapan.com can get you one but you'll be paying close to $1k after shipping as they are made to order.

FYI, the JDM model has the same front bumper and they also have the same fog lights, only difference is that the JDM ones come in both clear and yellow lenses. The headlights are of course different but they are not part of the bumper, don't be fooled by knockoffs, only real deal ones will be stanley brand with CLEAR parking lights not amber.

Why you asking so many questions about things that are so simple? You'll find all your parts on eBay so get to searching.

Also wrapping this stuff can all be done because it's just a weave put ontop of whatever part.

It's not like it's real cf.

That's where your wrong, for the most part they are discontinued through the dealer, only some parts for them are still available like bulbs, lenses and maybe the relay. The thing is that cars did not come with them as an option right out of the showroom, you had to buy them separate as an accessory and install them or have someone install them. Go to the dealer and tell them you want the fogs for you car, they'll say that most things are discontinued but they were available but only with clear lenses and not the yellow.

The fog light kit is discontinued and only a few parts for them are still available, the yellow fogs would be found on ebay used.

or using the yellow condom.

Seriously, I thought I remember seeing that years ago.

Or Yellow film tint over the lenses.

^Yeah my friend did that with a G20, turned out looking OEM but the way the 4g lights are I don't think it would turn out well as they're glass and have like those ridges on them.
