I see many people suggesting carbon boots and roofs for corsas, but is there actually any company making them?

I am having a carbon fibre boot made at the end of summer, when all teh shows are over and the corsa goes back into its garage, also having wide carbon front wings and possibly doors made too. 
If you want any info on teh company that are making mine and have already made my bonnet email cliogtt@cruisinuk.com he can tell you any info that you want.

I don't want a custom job, as it would be too pricey as well as too much hassle! Ther must be a company that makes these parts!

No roof there, but quite nice link none the less! Any other links to carbon interior bits for corsa?

Apparantly there is a shortage of CF at the mo   
This is a statement from Kaminari USA :  
 
=================================================  
Urgent Notice!  
 
Due to severe global shortages of carbon fiber material, Kaminari USA has slowed production of our Carbon Fiber Hoods and other Carbon Fiber body components.  
 
We currently are limited to items in stock so please call to see if what your looking for is in our warehouse.  
 
We deeply apologize that Kaminari USA has been forced to make this business decision, however our suppliers have drastically raised wholesale pricing due to production unable to meet demand. Most bulk supplies have been funneled toward military and aerospace industries. As soon as we can secure material at a realistic price structure, we will resume production.

I asked marcus about the possibilities for this winter and he said pretty much anything is do-able for the right price. If you have a roof made I am having one too mate   it will go with the rest of this winters plans

  its a skin. a certain CS member told me a while back however that he was having a full roof made, and then having it fitted, not a skin, an entire roof. presumably it would be crimped on somehow above your roof lining?!
