New Styling Products for FTOs. Maybe

FtoSam · Post by **FtoSam** » Thu Apr 26, 2007 10:57 am

Okay, I have just sent off an email to TopStage to see if they will expand their line-up to include a few things for FTOs.
Some of the products i suggested/asked for (Mostly because i want em... lol):

-Carbon Fibre Bonnets (New Styles?)
-Carbon Fibre Boots
-Wheel Arch Kits (add 20mm to arches)
-Center Guage Cluster in CF
-CF Dash
-CF Stereo Surrounds
-Eyelids
-Rear Bars (Currently Limited Selection)
-Engine Bay CF Sheilds (in particular air box's etc)
-CF Cannards

Let me know if you guys have any interest in getting this stuff made available locally. I think these guys are located in Melbourne. I may be able to donate a few things to them for R&D. But probably not everything.
Their Prices seem awesome. Their CF Bonnets and boots are $400-$600
I paid over $1100 for mine and was looking at another $1000 for my CF boot. So i figure they may be able to supply us with some high quality Parts, whist giving us normal prices.. If so, they could make a killing. Esp. if they start selling to the UK.
So... Anyone interested in any of those parts?

Pretty Sure these are fairly available already as a mass produced Univesal Fit type of item. Dont think they could beat the $500 price thats coming with those.

Hi sam,

We do have some products for FTo.
CF Stereo Surround
Air Diversion Panel
CF Airbox

Boot lid we will need to make moulds up.
if you are in melbourne, we might be able to work things out.

CF boot lid are $650 but if you lend me yours, it will be $550. but there will have to be 5 ppl minimum to buy. last time we make the mould for the bootlid there is minimum demand that's why i threw it away in the bin.

CF bonnet are $850 OEM

for aero parts, we are not really keen to do full kit unless there is demand minimum 5 ppl and it has to be full kit.

Wide body panels we do custom they are FROM $600/guard corner.

We are located in melbourne and by appointment only.

regards
Freddy

Have sent back asking for pics and prices of the above.
I have a spare MIVEC Cover i can give them. Or if anyone's in Melb, they could lend theirs? However Im getting a GR engine, so not much use to me.. But for the greater good.....
Yes CF dash would make my pants go tight also...
Really need someone to go in and say can you make this this this this...
Pretty sure if we get 5 ppl wanting the same thing, they'll do it..
