FS: Carbon Fiber License Garnish! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #62431 84 posts Started by schaa_1
wow thats pretty sweet! i just miight consider getting one..
im usually not a fan of carbon fiber, but i think on a dark color it would look great.

The new Acura TLs have a CF license plate thingie... I think it looks really nice on them actually. If this one looks anything like the TLs do, it would probably look pretty nice on our cars!
This Licence Garnish piece is really hard to remove! I've tried for some weeks ago, because I were trying to do some dampening behind it. I did not manage to remove it...


By the way, will CF match a black car?
its actually really easy laugh.gif
remove the tail lights first wink.gif

i'm actually going to make one of these soon, just without the hole in it for the plate...smooth ftw

It sure will, I guess it all depends on angle too. In some angles it will have a silver scaly cast. Pretty neat. If you read up on the EBAY page they say that they have different colors. What they have I am unsure but wont hurt to ask the seller. smile.gif
This is exactly what I've been looking for; thanks poster!

What are you talking about - did you win the auction?

KAOS|THE PROGRESSION - SLOW & STEADY|PARTING OUT- it ALL must go!|
Everyone who bid got a second chance bid, I did at least.
I got mine for 101 plus ship. I also saw where you won the auction
but the auction says ships to US only. If there is a problem with shipping
to you Kaos let me know, I'll see if I can help you out.

Also these are made to order(5 to 10 days) then shipped so don't expect it in the next few days.
I was hoping to have mine by the 18th but then I read more and realized that probably isn't going
to happen.

Hahaha - I asked that guy for a few more parts done in CF as well, and he said he's going to try for me... that'd be sweet.

As far as shipping, I've already paid the invoice and he didn't sound concerned that I was from Canada... I'll just be paying out the arse for customs, but thanks for the help!! I appreciate it!

hmmm I should send him my euro splitters, to see how much he would charge.

I kinda want to know how big of a vaccuum he's got for making the molds, because if you look at everything he has for sale on his ebay page - the size of the parts he creates seems pretty limited, I haven't asked him yet, but if the quality is there - I would be very interested in doing more business with this guy for sure!

yeah, im expecting mine by the end of this month. more parts would be nice, but this is enough for now. biggrin.gif
whoever is making these obviously has/is around 6gc's to be making C/F license plate garnishe's....someone should message him and see what else he can do! doors, wings, fenders, hatches, hoods, interior pieces? i dunno just an idea but i do like these a lot...espically for a 2 toned car.

can and will do. mine is silver but it will give you an idea
Well I had ordered one awhile back and just got it in yesterday. it looks awsome right out of the box but just wait till you try to put it on... nothing fits. I'll prob have to mod it to get it to fit right but its to wide and hits the tail lights and the bumper and the top and bottom are to short and looks horrible none of the bolt holes match neither does the lock hole. kindasad.gif to everyone that did buy this hopefully i just got a bad one or something but i will try to get my money back and will not deal with that same seller.
My guess is they will all be the same. frown.gif I haven't got mine yet, maybe next week.

JDM guy made me do it.
frown.gif Not sounding good. I'll be opening a dispute very quickly if they turn out to be crap.
