But yeah the plan is once I get to Cali to do a full CF build SVX. So I'll need to start shopping around for a good candidate about the same time I get there.
For structure I'd be doing CF peices on just dropping weight i'll go with the FG. And that run of CF hoods... AFBeefCake has one... No thanks. I'd go OEM figment or do something that fit the lines of the car better. Still full CF no FG frame with CF skin junk. But I'd still make a FG one too for those just looking for the weight. Don't want to cut into Tom's hood sales but just since I'm at it and cause the car will be a project showcase car of shop work. How many would want CF roofs aswell? Likely not with retaining sunroof as that would kinda be pointless... But will try to make and adjusted RA style vent or maybe a manual set up sunroof or something.
No I will not even think of T-Tops....
And special requests of what people would want to see made? 97' Grills? I want to do sideskirts badly aswell as splitters, lips, and diffusers.
JDM wings?

Seraphin, I would highly recommend you start with the CF lids. Those basterds are really heavy, you will be a "hero" if you fab it out of CF. The next thing I do is the hood. I guess you will definitely be receiving orders at least for the lid.

The doors are heavy, no doubt. I dunno if a CF frame will be good since I guess it WON'T seal well. You need the OEM frame for that. And installing the OEM frame on a CF door shell... I dunno everything just doesn't seem right.

For the roof, I would prefer to intall the vynil I recommended a while back. It is the dry carbon fiber type, and looks extremely good on the car (installed it on my Z). And... it is lighter than the CF skin

As for the rest, I consider them optional items since their OEM replacements are not that heavy...

I said it once and will say it again. The real additional weight on the SVX comes from:
- Front and rear metal bumpers.
- Trunk lid
- Seats
- Front hood.

I replaced/modified everything except for the lid.
