Blue. Carbon fiber charge pipes

So after looking online i cant seem to find a set of blue carbon fiber woven charge pipes for the s63tu. I am looking to match the blue carbon fiber of the Eventuri intake set. Has anyone gone about wrapping or hydrodipping charge pipes? Will they last? Or have i just not found the needle in the haystack yet of the blue carbon charge pipes

I just messaged my friend who works there and gave him a heads up. I know they do all kinds of custom work but you have to be patient because they're really busy.

Here is my custom blue CF trim that they did for me a while ago.

Its amazing. In the direct light it really pops otherwise its just a subtle blue tone that stands out perfectly.

They did respond to me with a price range between $400-500 similar to rk pricing, but similar in design to the VRSF style with only 2 meth bungs. RK has 4 meth bungs.

I actually need to touch base with them and ask if they need any dimensions or materials.

Yes they are busy all the time. I doubt they’ll be in tomorrow and they usually leave the shop around 2pm but they’re pretty good about responding. Don’t give up. I’ll mention it this week because I need to ask them about some work they’re doing for me. 👍

Anyone find a set? RK stopped producing his and I'd love to have set to match my RK CF CAI. I am not in search of blue rather just good straight up CF no bungs required but willing to buy it with bungs if that is the only option.
