If you send me a fiberglass door I have 150lbs of carbon and expired prepreg I need to get rid of. I can make some really shitty looking carbon doors with rattlecan clearcoat for...lets say... $150

Yes, Seibon offers a set, or at least they're listed on certain sites.

If you're just looking for weight reduction and not "bling", id imaging you could reduce the weight of the stock doors quite significantly by removing material from them and essentially just leaving behind the outer skin and frame.

That's my thought, though I wouldn't recommend for a street car, and a track only car should have a cage of some sort.

I'd upgrade "wouldn't recommend" to "would be downright idiotic" on a street car.

Absolutely, though the same goes for any sort of composite replacement doors. He stated they were for a "time attack" car, so I assumed it was going to be a dedicated race vehicle.
