New Carbon Lineup @ Extreme Dimensions

[Zer0DeGreeZ]

Did anyone notice the new, Hood, Hatch, and Headlam Covers offered at Extreme Dimensions? Although pointless to have a cf hatch unless for show, I kinda dig the hood they made, and totally loving the headlamp covers. Anyone bought any CF from them in the past? Good Quality?

Juan JZ was selling a ED CF Hatch:

damn, that hatch is actually pretty nice. its a shame that it doesn't really reduce much weight compared with stock though (assuming a glass window is used)

 

[tlo86]

lexan?

 

[Moy]

Yeah, using the CF hatch and lexan would be a killer weight saver for drifting

 

[Zer0DeGreeZ]

I'm going to guess by what i've asked of friends and that hatch pic there, that ED is actually pretty good quality. I am so glad someone makes headlite covers again, and I have called and asked, and yes when combining the HL covers and either hoods, the carbon weave is flowing same direction as to match up, which to me screams product quality and care for attention to small details. I still say that they need to make CF grille duct replacements for the upper grilles.

you could go to a glaiser,same people that do house window's.

people keep talking about the weight of the backglass:3d_frown:most backglasses(tempered) are very light,when compared to a windsheild.some older volvo's and mercedes had laminated backglasses,which were a little heavier for there size.about the only tempered backglasses that i would say are heavy ,be some vette's amd camaro/firebird.
just my .02$,seeing i set these thing's all day for many year's.

Lexan over stock is only like a 12lb advantage not worth it for the money. No idea how much the stock hatch weighs verse carbon though.

The CF hatch has to shed decent weight, the rear hatch is steel, and i dont think its thin stuff either. Whats the weight difference?

 

[rodel]

Cool hatch. It's Carbon Fiber; however, fitment looks poor.

12lbs? And how much do you save from the hatch? 20lbs? Where is the hidden weight then?

 

[SupraOfDoom]

I like show with a tiny bit of go .

 

[carter]

I'd rock it, looks good but i kinda always wanted to see cf trim pieces but thats just me

 

[SupraOfDoom]

me 2 but no one has got it done for some reason.

 

[guido]

does someone know their web site??
it will be very interesting to know if they could do the same for mk2
even if the weight reduction is poor,your problem on mk2 is rust and availabilitie of free rust hatch

Like I said I don't know on the hatch. Hidden weight, you mean in the car? Uni-body? lol

i don't think it's worth it either.replacing a 3/16" piece of tempered glass with 3/16" lexan will look awful.it would be very noticable,even if the stock moulding's were used.i can see if it's just a stripped down drag car,but not a street car.

i hope people aren't confusing plexi with lexan either.
