Complete Aero Kits make CF fenders (without Z3 inserts)for 5th gen. If I had a digital camera, I would take pics and show you mine.

I don't know of anyone who already has them, but you can give Hans (owner) a call at Debotech. It's a CF shop I worked at in Mooresville, NC. If you have a spare fender you could send, they could use it as a mold. I actually just quit today (3/1/03), because of a manager, but I wouldn't hesitate to have them do any work for me. They make parts for motorcycles, NASCAR, LeMans series, aircraft, ANYTHING. Just tought I'd through it out there. Their site is not the best, and it doesn't have anything but motorcycle parts listed. We actually got through with an '02-'03 Vette hood a week or so ago.

Yes they are lighter than factory fenders... (sheet metal in comparison to carbon fiber)

and the pic that KinetiQ put up is what I'm talking about, just he painted the top half, it's not a insert.

Ok, I was wrong, it is a add on piece.. Mine was one whole piece (like a normal fender) no wide body.

Mine were $350 for the pair.

Don't you guys hate it when people make off topic threads in your post?
Hybird it was a joke. You know like being sarcastic. I wouldn't get carbon fiber fenders for the bling. Right now I need a new driver side fender. I doubt I could find a pearl diamond white fender in good condition so i was just looking into c/f fenders cuz i would haven't to paint them and i could sell my old white fender on ebay or somthing.
