Vosko, you will have to trim it to fit your IC pipes. With so many different IC's available, its hard for me to get that many templates , so it works out better having everyone cut it for their IC pipes. Not to mention every one gets a better fit. Like I said before, its very easy to cut.





I also have kevlar ones available, but due the the significant amount of extra labor with kevlar, the price is $160 shipped in the continental US. Ill have pics of that up next week, along with more pics of the cf ones.

Sounds like a plan. How would you suggest "cutting"? I'm looking at your option 1 and would need to cut my own since I have a FEED...not exactly the most popular IC in the states

The cf is very easy to trim. You can cut it with a hacksaw, dremel tool, etc. Anything(within reason) that cuts plastic will cut cf. And sanding or filing the edge leaves it nice and smooth.





Are you still in Japan? If so, the shipping will probably cost an arm and a leg.

Alright, shipping to cali is fine. The price is $100 shipped until wednesday of this week, when the price goes back up to $120 shipped.



If anyone wants to order, I accept paypal at carbonfiber@fc3s.org and money orders/cashiers checks. Email me for my address if you want to send a MO. Price is currently $100 shipped in the continental US. When you send me payment, either paypal or MO, make sure you include your mailing address, what exactly youre ordering(ex. 3rd gen cooling panel, option 1)



If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me or post them here.

Not to change the subject but do you make any other parts in CF or do you plan on making other parts?
