5one5 Innovations is now up and running. For those of you who don't frequent the evil forum I'll let you know a bit about us. 5one5 is a small shop that specialises in custom fiberglass and carbon fiber parts for the FC. We make parts for other cars, but no other rotary cars as of yet. Here is a list of products that we have available:



Triple gauge pod to replace the idiot light cluster - This pod will hold 52mm or 60mm gauges and is made of fiberglass. The gauges are angled towards the driver for good visibility. All pods come gel coated black ready for use or you can sand it with some fine grit, primer, and paint it whatever color you like. $85 shipped



Single gauge pod to replace the driver's door vent - This pod will hold 52mm or 60mm gauges and is made out of fiberglass as well. The gauge is angled towards the driver for good visibility. All pods come gel coated black ready for use or you can sand it with some fine grit, primer, and paint it whatever color you like. $65 shipped



Lightweight fiberglass sunroof - This is a direct bolt in replacement for the factory sunroof. You will only need to transfer the clip holders and weather stripping off of your stock sunroof to use ours. We supply the hardware. This panel weighs in at 3.5 pounds vs. a touch over 10 pounds for the stock piece. Best of all, this panel will never rust like the stock one does. The 5one5 sunroof has identical bracing to the stock panel to ensure strength. Extensive testing has been completed on this panel and no buffetting was present at speeds up to 100mph!(It would've been tested faster, but I didn't feel like taking a chance with the local cops. ) All sunroofs will come light grey primered and ready for paint. $300 shipped



Also soon to come will be a reverse vented hood. There has been a huge demand for a quality vented hood for the FC that won't break your bank. Well, we have the answer for you!! The prototype hood will be finished and ready for molding this week. As soon as it is primered and ready for molding, I will get pictures of it and post them on here. So if you are looking for a great reverse vented hood for your FC then keep an eye on this thread for more updates. The price is estimated to be $650 shipped, but that is not firm yet.



If you have any questions or comments about our products please feel free to PM me here or email me at boostedrex@gmail.com If you buy more than one item at a time then I will discount the total price for you. 5one5 Innovations is small and we are not out to try and make a fortune right off the bat. Also, if you are local to Sacramento, CA then you can come and pick up your parts from me for a lower cost. Product quality and customer service are our two top concerns. Here are some pictures of our products that I mentioned. I will have more pictures soon. Including a great picture of just how strong our products are. Try a 200+ pound man standing on our triple gauge pod. (keep in mind this is thin fiberglass and it's full weave, not chop strand!!) Thank you for your time.

Actually, we are looking at doing a lightweight rear hatch. The only problem I see is this. Is a lexan rear window street legal or would it only be good for track use only cars? I would say that this is something we'll surely be interested in.



Now keep in mind that if you want something I haven't mentioned and/or don't make, we can make anything you want. We will do an estimate and ask for a non-refundable 50% deposit up front. We are currently making two full interiors for FC's that will consist of 15 CF panels each. Not our idea, but the owners wanted it that way.

What kind of FB parts are you talking about? And if we need a stock part to mold off of would you be willing to trade the stock part for an aftermarket one??

Here are two low res pictures of the prototype hood. The lip on the front of the vents isn't shaped up or anything. The vents themselves are the only thing that you can clearly see, but at least it will give you a good idea of the vent layout on the hood. Hopefully that is what you were talking about Bone. If not then let me know what you have in mind.

You can get lexan rear hatches from Mazdacomp, and a few other places that are pretty cheap too...
