Carbon creations is will to make them i just need 4 other people to start this...

Message from cc
I can make one yes but I'd need 4 other people interested and willing to put down a deposit to get it started so I can cover the molding cost. Price would be around £200 give or take a little

Will they be made from carbon fibre or will it be a carbon skinning? And is it carbon creations you are dealing with in the USA? just ask because of shipping costs, import duty VAT etc.

I do like these, nicer than the PP lid.. possibly interested but as slipping clutch said, is it going to be proper carbon fibre, or "fibron" - i.e one/two layers of carbon mat followed by loads of fibreglass

I assume the latter for £200
