its unfortunate guys...
everyone better step up to the plate and get their hoods/bumpers ASAP.
I was there at import trendz... i guarantee prices will skyrocket for quite some time.
Even if they do find a new source for CF.. it wont be this year, or maybe even next..

Supply and Demand boys and girls. That's all it is. C/F is so popular with F1, and any type of supercar that is produced, not to mention the two massive programs that REDZMAN mentioned.
It's in demand right now, and that affects price. I'm sure Gasoline isn't helping the matter but it's basically the same situation. It's not so much a shortage, it is a cost to make the product issue.

I guess there is also some big thing about "AirBus" Who bought up most the CF. Like, ALL the CF, yeah, well they bought most of it, and they spray it with some coating to make it "AirBus" material???
It sucks, cause imagine a company that could outbuy a multi Billion dollar industry of companies??? Balla Balla.
