Beta The Lightweight Collection v0.011- Hot Fix

An ever expanding collection of Carbon Fiber Parts, Starting with the Bastion

    The Lightweight Collection”, also known as TLC, is an automotive aftermarket company based in Great Falls, Montana (USA). TLC specializes in lightweight parts, specifically carbon fiber. TLC established themselves with their “Bastion Suite” with the objective of giving Bruckell’s flagship sports sedan a much-needed diet.

    This project began with the idea of getting a Bruckell Bastion 6.5 GT to weigh under 4000lbs in a natural way, giving me the opportunity to relearn carbon fiber workflows. The lessons I learned here are why HMT's (https://www.beamng.com/resources/ha...xpanded-modern-etk-aftermarket-support.26273/) Pure790 models look so good now. I've been holding off on sharing this to ensure proper integration with my Parts Pack (X3P) (https://www.beamng.com/resources/xpogosams-personal-parts-pack-x3p.28929/) , which includes several Bastion parts that I wanted to ensure compatibility with.

    Finally, an actual weight loss regimen for everyone's favourite modern muscle sedan!

    Aforementioned narrowbody parts aside, what's missing is a set of body-coloured carbon parts (especially for liveried time attack configs).

    This is absolutely mint! The only error I noticed was that the standard carbon fiber fender flares don't show up as options. Everything else works.

    SUGGESTION: The Titanium exhaust for the Bastion could REALLY benefit visually from your HMT Titanium Exhaust Tips with the burnt titanium coloration from your other mod! Cheers!

    A great mod, as well as Arsenic Works and HMT! Will there be lightweight parts for the ETK 800/K?

    It'd be interesting to see a bit of weight loss in the Carbon fender flares since carbon fibre weighs about 70% of fiberglass.

      ill look into it and see if I can make them stable, they already weight so little(4KG) and you loose stability with weight
