Hay,
Its my understanding that Carbon is getting harder and harder to get.
The AirBus and new Boeing 777 airlines are sucking up all the corbon around. They use a 12k toe in there yarn and most 3k used for the auto aftermarket is being coverted to 12k yarn to weave the 12k carbon cloth for thier applacation.

IT can stil be found jsut not as cheaply anymore. I remeber my buddy picked up one for his focus hb when they first came out (focus) and he got it pretty cheap but tuners are growing extremely fast right now and not so underground anymore.

Im into the CF look to the max but with the MC hoods being so BIG with the front clip being apart of it compared to a common front end , i think its to much CF and then the cost factor sets in with all that CF it takes to make em. i think the suttle add-ons are key with just alil here n there. IMO
