    Hey folks,

    I'm setting up with an after-work hobby of making carbon parts - I just need to know what would be the parts of choice for you guys. I have a couple of things I want to make, such as the small hugger for the 12-16 - Wanting to start small before moving onto full fairings, etc.

    What ideas have you guys got in mind? Bearing in mind I'll need to purchase the pattern part.

    Exhaust infill panels are always a hot topic, couldn't find any that I liked so I made one. Would look good in carbon.

    :(
    Don't want to start on something so large, but I'll keep you in mind for when I progress up to it. I won't sell it just before either :D

    I'd be down for heel plates on swingarms and frame like the ones bazza pictured.

    I'd also be down for a full fairing kit in time. Can't say I've had much faith in the fit of any I've seen before...

    At the severe risk of offending @mk3golfcab I would love OEM style carbon chain guards. I understand the complexity of the curve changes, but just putting in my view.
