Saw on Facebook. Ford Performance will be producing some carbon fiber body panels for the Bronco Raptor later this year. Here are some of the posted teaser photos. What do you guys think? They are also claiming Ford Performance will make CF fenders!

Wrong application for CF. CF excels in structural applications not cosmetic ones. Tired of this in the industry...

Carbon fiber to lighten a 5,000-pound Bronco.

Methinks people don't understand the benefits of carbon fiber and just like to burn $$$.

Not quite... philosophy mabey? A simple fact of life perhaps?


Unless something can be proven using math or science, than it's an opinion.. and opinions are inherently wrong.
