The frame on the full carbon bonnets could have a black gel-coat on it. No idea why, because carbon is a bit like Burberry - people like the pretty patterns.

might be a bit extreme but they also do ones with a frame in

If you've got door bars on your roll cage then GRP doors would be a good spend. The standard ones are fucking heavy!
