they make the hatch but all the weight is in the glass. Might as well just get fiberglass stuff if all you are worried about is going "faster"

is this a street car or track car? cause if its a street car you should just leave the thing alone

and if it is a track car,check to see the weight limits..Going to light is sometimes illegal for certain classes.

are you trying to fly...i mean die

leave some metal on the car to keep you grounded with all the CF you plan on putting on, plus a lil but incase of a accident woudldn't hurt either

but to answer your question as far as I knwo they make hoods, fenders, and trunks in CF.
you want lighter bumpers just get FRP or fiberglass.
