            That would be possible, but would require a totally separate mold setup. It would honestly be easier to do a stock FG piece, which then can be easily cut and modfied to custom spec. Ive actually been considering this for my own personal truck.

            I do like your thinking....

              thats why I spec'd fiberglass and not CF, I want to do some alterations that wouldn't be practical with CF pieces

                This would be awesome, easier to make the fronts a little wider, front fenders with cladding would be the major pieces I'd be interested in

                  Fenders with cladding would be nice.

                          Thanks for the feedback so far everyone. Some may know, I work with fiberglass and carbon fiber almost daily (I own and run my own surfboard label) and have done some various parts in the past. Ive been considering seriously looking into doing more car part fabrication lately so wanted to gauge an interest in what people would be looking for so I could maybe determine things I could produce that would be worth the effort.

                          Right now, Im only considering....not actually doing. But that could change depending on the level of interest and continued feedback here in this thread. I may do some misc parts just to get back into the groove. If that happens, I'll keep everyone posted.
