Carbon Fiber interest

This is just to see if there is any interest in these parts. Im thinking about having them made for my car, and i could have some more made if there's enough interest.

Would there be any performance or weight advantages or are these merely aesthetic changes? The parts you highlighted are plastic and I would think carbon fiber would actually weigh more.

They will weigh more. For aesthetic reasons only. No performacne gains

I'd prefer interior parts, or to replace any of the chrome parts.

Which chrome parts are you talking about? The door handles? Those and the emblems are the only chrome parts I can think of.

The carbon pieces would look pretty cool but I would rather save
them as finishing touches and spend the money on performance pieces
when they are out
