    Default Carbon fiber parts for 3 MPS??

    Been looking around since a bit before i bought the car for some carbon fiber bits. Im a lover of all things carbon, for anyone witness to my bike they understand, but besides DG Motorsports i havent really found anyone that makes bits for the 3 MPS. Anyone else bought or shopped around for some bits at all?

    Not interested in bonnet or hatch, im not a "fast and the furious" type of person

    Haven't seen the lid available for the gen 1 and I've already got the box so no point buying twice for some carbon under the bonnet haha and not a fan of the overlay. May have to stick with few carbon bits I have seen.

    But the search will continue!

    I can get a grill replacement and grill overlay, mirror covers and eyelids.
    As well as the bonnet and hatch that you don't want.
    I'll get some pics up later.

    Lol, this guy is crazy for Carbon fibre! I bet he has carbon fibre keys on his keyboard lol! You should grab a set of carbon fibre mirror covers, I think you can get a carbon fibre spoiler too and maybe a few other things (CF shark fin)

    I have one of the CF badgeless grilles that I purchased from eBay, probably much the same as Troy is selling. You can always paint over the CF if you aren't happy with the look, I will grab a few pics for you anyway.

    badgeless front grills dont do it for me, carbon or painted.

    Thanks Andre, you know well my addiction to the weavey stuff carbon fiber pet bowl on its way actually haha

    Yeah so far, only parts im keen on is mirror covers, rear wing and the front piece where the number plate sits. Haven't found any other carbon lips except the DGM one, sticks out too much for my liking.

    I like the look of the standard grill, if someone made the gen1 grill just as a carbon replacement id be all over it. DGM do one but the backing for the badge is solid and looks kinda cheap. I do like what you've done with it Bakis
