Essentially, I tried making my own using the dermal and drill method with a sheet of carbon fiber. Needless to say, they came out horrible, thus I contracted out having them CNC machined.

I am aware that this should probably be posted in the For Sale section, but since this specifically applies to D8 owners, I thought people on this forum would also be interested.
How much did it cost ya for everything to get milled? I'm interested cause I might get some of my ideas milled into reality

Any suggestions for other makers bodies that fit the D812.....
The supplied one hasn't or won't last very long at all

Cheers.

I have been reading and keeping track of multiple cars while i take a year off from racing while i am in korea and this car has been one the primary cars i have been tracking. What makes this car so desirable to own? They are hard to get and they resell very quickly. The pictures i have seen look great but what is it like on track? My one experience with HB didnt go so well for me (Ve8) steering rod ends broke religiously, but i wont rule out a good car based on my experience with one car. Thanks for any info.

D812 Decal sheets.

Anyone got factory decal sheets that they want to sell? Let me know what you have and how much you want for them.

This car is fantastic the durability is high, the handling is as much or as little as you could possibly set it up to be! You don't have to spend a fortune on parts to make it competitive. Overall it's a great car!
