I haven't, and wouldn't know where to start, but I talked to a guy at the Ottawa show that had a sweet F100 truck with the bed floor & pro-street wheel inserts done in carbon fiber. They looked fantastic! I went back & looked, but I took front, side & tailgate shots, but did not take the inside of the bed.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Pat,
Thanks for the tips!! Never thought about yellowbullet! No one around my area advertises carbon fiber work.
Looking to possibly do chin spoiler & grill for our 3rd gen Camaro.

There are a couple places that sell sheets of it for race car interiors. Try Bickel or Rick Jones etc they can fix you up.

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
