Just wondering if any body has tried mounting 400ex plastic on a predator? If so how much work was it

wow! thats a nice price!

when Carbon Fiber Tech put out the stuff for the Z, it was close to $800 for a set. custom orders only. it wasn't mass produced.

that CF isn't going to hold up to many wrecks though. inherently, the resin they use to bond the sheets in order to keep it that thin relegates the material to be quite crisp...it definitely isnt going to flex as well as plastics is.

it does look pretty cool still. i see the drag guys loving that stuff! :D
