That does look fantastic on your car!
Wish I could find something to replace the "GT" logo though.
I know it's a classic, but I just don't like the script.

There is the RTR and Cobra jet...

But, as far as I know, the Roush emblem is completely smooth, meaning the Roush logo isn't raised.. So, with that being said, I think a custom decal would stick right over it.

..I think.

I have an idea... Does anyone sell a smooth blackout panel that I could get with a dark blue carbon-fiber overlay?

One with NO gas cap at all.

I'm thinking about doing a dark blue carbon-fiber overlay on parts of the interior also.

Trufiber has one. They may be able to do colored Kevlar weave for you. Dreamtheory has one on his.

Yea, the Trufiber one is pretty nice, not sure if they do different colors or not though. I plan on getting one for myself eventually.

TruCarbon won't do any colored CF because it costs a lot and takes a while longer...

The only piece would be like DreamTheory's. However, if you have the cash and the patience, I'm sure they'll work something out.

Hey chutoyy I might have to come up and take a look at your '10 when i get out of this desert. I'll be in the Modesto area for a bit this summer. I almost just considered getting it painted to match the car, not a big CF fan and it would be only piece on the car if I dont paint it.

This vendor was working on a faux gas cap for a member on another forum. There's been no update but drop them an email. From their product listing they should be able to come up with something.

Did they remove the decal and just paint on the chrome part?

I bought a spare faux cap off ebay. The Decal was removed from the silver surround, sanded smooth and then painted. The guy also did the horse emblem on the front. Total price was under $170.

Thanks. He painted the chrome surround inset where the original decal was located? Was it chromed under the original decal?
