Default Is there carbon fiber doors for crx?

I did alot of research on VIS site and couldn't find anything. Right now i have a carbon fiber back hood, carbon fiber front hood, carbon fiber fenders, and i was wondering if there was anyone making carbon fiber OEM doors? . . might be a stupid question but i was told any question not ask is stupid. . . lol

I was wondering that myself. I assume by the "back hood" or "rear hood" or whatever fucked up name you wanna call it, is the HATCH.

If the CF is thick enough....it'll actually be stronger then those flimsy steel doors.

cf door are nice bling, but i dont really see the point of placing door on a car that cost more than the car it self.

if you have money to burn than good for you.

i also don't see the point of cf doors since you can gut your current doors and make them weigh close to that of cf doors at a much cheaper price.

Indeed, but in sheet form! And this is considering that the whole door is made in carbon fiber, and not just a carbon fiber layer over fiberglass. Either way, the thought of being t-boned scares the hell out of me with carbon fiber doors. And it's already scary enough with steel doors and supports

Fibreglass door=death trap. (Maybe that's why they say 'for race use only')
CF door is the way to go. I'd trust my life to CF any day over that tin foil sheet we call a door.

thats only if they use an OEM design, not like fiberglass doors where it looks like just the outer skin and no inner shell.
