[Busby]

bert, the vermin ones...are they painted to look cf or are they cf painted blue. EIther way...SICK! I want that!

I like the stock look of the raptor, and I don't want to change it's lines. I have carbon fiber accents on my streetbike, too.

how is the pattern on there? is it carbon fiber? If so...$$$$$$$ yikes, but looks like it is worth it!

[Busby]

when you say designs do you mean things like tribal but with a carbon look to them ?

If you was asking me this peels then it is hard to tell with a photo I have seen some things from a distance that look like carbon but when you get close to them they are just a sticker, the problem with printing now days is that resolution can be set so high and with 10 colour shades being printed into one area you can almost make anything look like the real thing.

Busby I reposted some pics on page 4.   After seeing your T-shirt designs I figured you would have some great ideas for a new Raptor hood.

I am wrong again

I dont mind putting some things together as long as I am not going to be treading on someone's toe's.... But and this is a big BUT I don't know if my designs would be good enough to keep the balance of airflow right for the radiator.... If you guy's want me to put together something design wise what I will do is change the venting slots at the front but I I need a basic shell to work with so I would need someone to post a full frontal picture that I could then start to work with.
Let me know what you guys 

[Bert]

Hey guys, I'm posting this up for 2 reasons...
1. How many would be interested in a Carbon Fiber hood.
2. Do you like this hood if you're interested in a CF hood?    (If not.. What style/kind are you looking for?)

I think your good to go

[Busby]

ok you guys are gonna have to try and picture the way this is going to look when it is on the hood as I can't do 3D stuff, with each of these you would obviously have the grill guard behind it so that it would continue to protect the rad.
Also some of the design on the 1st image would have to be changed slightly.
If these are nothing like what you was hoping for then I am sorry that I couldn't do something more creative but I wasn't 100% sure what was being asked of me.

Alright maybe I'm losing it, but I guess I'll just toss this out there.  FourWerx makes REAL carbon fiber products.  We do not use "carbon fiber coatings' or anything of that matter.  We are one of the few companies out there who believe that there is an actual use for carbon fiber/ titanium / and other lightweight products.  If you are just wanting the "carbon fiber Look" ( even though it looks nothing like carbon fiber when printed ) then go with Maier or Quadtech who are just making fake looking parts.

Now if you actually care about running the real thing, come to me as I can do that.  Quality is huge with FourWerx and you'll get nothing but that from us.  I know there is a concern with $ being spent on certain parts, but you DO get what you pay for and you can't expect to pay for mild steel and get GOLD.
