1:1 Carbon Doors

[ChapterM3]

Wow, this is the first I've learned of this project - excited to see the final outcome!

Never held a door off car-- how much do they weight?

... and how much are we looking at if we keep the stock door card and use the crash bar?

Personally, I far prefer the use of a metal crash bar to Kevlar :P

The OE crash bar is an aluminum I beam.

Kevlar has a much higher material toughness over the aluminum crash bar. The kevlar will deflect and crack but will maintain a much higher strength vs aluminum where the strength falls off rather quickly.

Doors are on the car, internal accessories fully fitted, including windows and airbags.

This was 2 days worth of work. Lots of notes to share - we're looking into offering this as a turnkey service for those that want doors delivered painted and fitted with all accessories (either new or used).

Ordered a few new trims - 20 year old car things.

Looks like he had a dispute with some members or an admin. It's a shame because he has gotten me some parts with really good pricing, and he's constantly providing new parts for the platform.

Shame we'll never know the final outcome since he was banned...

I don't think that's going to stop him from posting on his own website and/or FB. I'm pretty sure we'll hear what happened as a final outcome lol

That's true but I would rather let him document his work here where it might have a chance at being saved, vs. social media or a business website who has no reason to save older posts.
