Where can I buy black carbon fiber? I'm looking to replace my warning stickers on the left side of my Z. I live in a small town so I can't buy it here. Is there a place on the net where I can buy some? Thanks for the help.

I put my orv stickers and tabs over mine. I'm cheap, cause if it don't make it go faster, or more durable, well, that's not money I'll be spending. Of course, just my opinion.

ORV stickers? I think tonight I will be drilling out the rivets with a very small drill bit and will keep it all yellow. If it looks dumb then I will figure something out.

I too thought about drilling too, but then my tags came in the mail. If you drill'm out, try and post a picture so we can see what it looks like.
peace

Bbertram I buy my cloth from www.carb.com .They have many different types of cloth from Aramid to Kevlar. They have many different weights and weaves of Carbon Fibre. Making the patches is easy if you have the right tools.

I removed my warning labels last night. I tried drilling them out but it was to hard, I have crappy bits. So I pulled them out one by one and it looks OK with them off. I think I need to fill the holes or get something put in its place. I'll try and post a pic this afternoon.
