The rear vents I just wrapped really quick with some vinyl called Tekwrap 4D Carbon.. I have a huge roll of the stuff, conforms easily and looks VERY close to real dry carbon finish.  I would love to make the vents in real carbon, that would be awesome! ;D

Very cool! But, you shouldn't give Toyota any credit by putting their stickers on your work of art. I would put "ME because I'm a badass" on it instead.  ;D

No doubt I just want the engine cover, if you have your own logo, put it on there. Sign me up. Vents too or tell me how to wrap mine:)

Bummer, my E22 has the other style cover! However, I'm sure I could grab it off the boat and provide it for prototyping... :)

Im in Seattle btw and boat's on Lake Coeur d'Alene in ID.

The composite shop is crazy busy with their normal products, I am guessing they would only make more of these if they could do a run of at least 4-5+.  If the demand is high enough I will have them quote out a run... I love mine soooo much, but I wasnt sure if people would want to pay $300+ for something almost purely aesthetic.  I have a bunch of other composite ideas I want to do, this one was just the first.  Time is scarce these days, I am too busy wakesurfing with my epic to get any projects done! haha! ;D
