Why does that sound like a scam for only $5K??? I've seen beater GA's going for more than that, let alone a full custom with lots of carbon fiber that had to cost a ton. There's more than $5K in CF parts on that thing.

[81DaytonaPaceCar]

Eh...I still have better things to spend $5K on...

[FireBirdGirl02]

I have to agree with Jeff, I think the Grand Am is ugly.

Was thinking the exact same thing. Unless he bought in bulk, the price I usually see for a square yard of carbon fiber is $45 to $80. That's one layer. You gotta have at least 5-6 layers (guesstimate) to get any type of strength for body parts, probably twice as much. That said, each part is easily close to $1,000 in parts and labor... and from the looks of the pieces whoever made them definitely had to use reverse molds and vacuum bagging to get those pieces made, which isn't a cheap thing that normal individuals would have.

ditch the spoiler and paint the hood and it would look alright

[meissen]

Also, did anyone notice that the door is not carbon fiber? So you have a 95&#37; carbon fiber body... ...and black doors.

didnt notice that but doors are probably the heaviest parts (at least of fbodys)

[meissen]

True that, but it wouldn't take much to make a carbon fiber outside shell piece, the inside will still be steel.

[Superman09]

Ben, you have problems......

[kammi10]

that thing is gangsta

[ITSSLOW]

Looks like Rolo's rims.

[nascarnate326]

Its legit. Been making fun of siks asian ass for years now. It truly is the nicest GA. Not the fastest, but sooo nice.

[JoeliusZ28]

All that carbon fiber and he chooses one of the cheapest aftermarket wheels availible? sorry, im not impressed... doesnt look spectacular either. I can appreciate his hard work but not for myself.

[81DaytonaPaceCar]

How much does anyone wanna bet that it's just carbon fiber film applied over the exisitng body panels?

Or I suppose it could be a former SEMA car.

If it is all carbon fiber, and not a SEMA car, stupid money was spent on a Grand Am needlessly.

And, for the record, I didn't say it was ugly...just wouldn't waste $5000 on it...
