    if all you want is a non functioning CF plug, there's lots of those available already.
    Fair points, but the person who made the suggestion suggested 'someone' produce it, so I wasn't thinking the kid.

    Why would the fitment be terrible? Flex in the carbon? You should be able to engineer that out...

    I know of a cheap one locally that needs some repairs anyway that would be a great base to carbon fiber

    I think carbon fiber seat backs would be cool. I'd rock a set
