Default Carbon Fiber Install

Alright,

So I just go all my carbon fiber stuff for my Z and I need to get it put on. Who in the area would be a good shop to take it to for this?

-Seibon hood
-A pillars
-B pillars
-Nismo 2 cf wing
-hatch
-AS Rear Lip (un decided on this as I think I am going to get it painted to match the lower half of the car)

Need to get it done prior to Frday as after that the Z will be in the audio shop for a good week getting some small upgrades... .

So, if you know a shop that can put these on for me and are great to deal with hit me up.

Thanks.

Nope.. direct replacments dude, not the cheap sticker stuff..

I wouldn't mind doing it but I have zero time. Between getting off work at 530 and then having to go to ball games on Mons and practice on tues and thurs after work I wouldn't even start on it till 10 or 11pm everynight. I would rather just have a shop do it for me then to spend the man hours on it myself.

* before getting any CF parts that are near the front/rear windows, keep in mind that any "shiny surface" aka "clear gloss coat" on any CF part causes a reflection in the glass making driving in the daytime very unpleasant.
