Is there a manufacturer of carbon fibre parts for the Elise S2? I want to replace the front and rear black plastic louvred grills wiht carbon fibre.

Surely this would cause cooling problems? Eliseparts.com had some carbon fibre stuff.

It would be a nightmare to mould all those fins in carbon - if you find anything it will be hugely expensive (and not weigh any less than the plastic parts you have now)

Not in carbon fibre - but www.autostyle-solutions.com do a full kit in mesh to repalce all the black plastic grilles on the S2 - about £450 for the full kit, and you can have it in gold, silver, or black as std - see the pics of Tiggas car with the I-Bar roof - it has them all on it.

Enough carbon bits to replace all the grilles on an S2 would probably cost about £1000 + judging by the price of other similar carbon stuff

thanks all, looks like autostyle might be the way to go. it does not necessarily have to be carbon fibre, but just something that looks better than that naff plastic lotus use.
