Eye Candy Upgrades For The E92!!!
I'm a new member on here. I don't own or plan on owning an e9X car yet, however I do drive a e34 M5. I have done a lot of Lotus work in the past and one of our old suppliers made these! Though you guys might like to see. It is all dry lay, pre-preg carbon. The quality is beyond anything I have seen in the states. Companies name is Benetec. I am no longer with the Lotus company, and am not trying to sell these parts. Just though you guys would enjoy seeing them.
Cheers, Brian |

Haven't seen the Amuse, but I can vouch for Benetec. They make a full carbon body for the Lotus that is completely original and damn near perfect. I wouldn't be surprised if Amused uses Benetec for their carbon work.

Are carbon doors supposed to have steel cross beams in them? If not, good luck if you get T boned.

It turns out Benetec makes all the carbon parts you see on Amuse cars.
http://benetec.kir.jp/ I don't know where Ericsson comes in, but I would assume they are getting their stuff from Benetec as well. Just like the seats are Recaro and the wheels BBS. Titan makes the exhaust. Typically companies like those build and tune cars, but don't actually make to many parts themselves. Cheers, Brian |

In love with these/ericsson/amuse parts. But OMFG the price. Anyone know where if any of these parts (yes I love the hood too) will be available to alot less than the listed price?
