Oh it's an OEM skinned cover. That shouldn't be too hard or expensive to do. Pretty sure carbon designz will do that for you as will most other skinners.
The real expense comes from making a one off genuine full carbon cover to fit the original fixing points. Skinning an OEM cover is bread and butter for any skinning Shop.

99% of OEM 'Carbon' parts are skinned, saving a few hundred grams off a piece of trim isnt going to do anything. Lets face it, its all for show this stuff.
I had 3 grands worth of carbon options on a Porsche years ago, all just skinned when I had to remove some of it.

Agreed but this is cheaper than having the part made out of actual carbon fibre and not just skinned. My B7 engine cover was a full carbon jobbie. And it does make quite a difference in weight, there is a big difference in weight between my plastic rear diffuser on the C7 and my carbon one. Even the wing mirrors have a noticeable difference. But I totally agree it's about the look not the weight saving but my point was about the cost difference.
