Shine Auto Project is now in the process of perfecting their skills with working with carbon kevlar. As some of you know I entered SEMA 2009 this year with the help of quite a few sponsors and Shine Auto was nice enough to provide me with a carbon kevlar spec - R diffuser we have just released. The thing is my current car's current form sports the V2 with carbon fiber 2x2 weave integrated in the lip, canards and sideskirts w/ a carbon kevlar rear diffuser. If there is enough interest/sure buyers in carbon kevlar trimmed kits we are willing to produce it if there are any takers using my car first off.

Let us know your feed back as well as any "serious inquries".

*car in its current state...



Thanks,
Ben

 

What are the benefits of carbon kevlar vs. the currently available material?

 

I think it looks hot.....

 

from my understanding kevlar should be stronger than cf but i think might slightly weigh a tad bit more but nothing significant

if anything its basically preference and rarity in my two cents..

if you really carried about weight for tracking or motorsports then "dry carbon" would be your solution but i do not think its necessary for street cars as well as "track-themed show cars"

 

info on the bumper hardware youre using on the v2 by the headlight?

 

is the diffuser an original design from Shine, or is it a knock off?

 

Nice car boneout

 

For any of the street cars here, just looks. For track cars it's impact resistance. Properly integrated Kevlar or Carbon/Kevlar will hold the cracked bodywork together if you bump fenders so its not all over the track. Also has the benefit of being cheaper.
As for SAP, I support the effort 100% if this is actually a new part, or is this just another replica?

WTF, this is one nasty Zed. Looks like all the leftover parts at a shop got thrown on one effin car.

 

thanks for the props on the car bro, we're seeing the interest to see if there will be more interest in producing carbon kevlar kits and if there is i might get my v2 carbon kevlar trimmed to match my rear and wheels

the hardware next to my lights are sparco fasteners which come handy since i do track my car and need to take off my bumper in an efficient manner

the diffuser is a replica of the revolfe rear diffuser

carbon pics are up on our thread !!!!!!!!!!!

 

Where are the pix of the Spec-R diffuser???

I was eyeballing it all week every time I went over to clean my buddy's widebody G35 that was in front of you! haha, small world!

nice car

 

thanks buddy

 

Hey..............you know something........


I think that black Z wit teh Advans in the OP was in 'Reader's Rides' section of the newest Super Street.......ya?

 

Good stuff Ben.... Shine FTW

 

thanks yeah its actually gunmetal off the Lexus IS-F but it looks black

 

im personally not a fan of the kevlar, but the show guys are. Either way

 

Nice car.

Are the latches on the front bumper functional? How difficult are they to install? How much modification is need to make them work? Are there any other bolts needed to keep bumper attached? I'd love to do this to my front bumper to make it easier to remove my front bumper. Thanks for any info.
