No none makes them, but they would be nice to have. Im sure they would be nowhere near DOT legal, but then again how many of us actually drive fully legal cars? My guess would be not many.

In my opinion Carbon fiber doors are for drag only and Not recommended for street.

Check out www.gtfabrications.com they make 2g carbon fiber doors and 1g fiberglass doors.

heres our link http://gtfabrications.com/index.php?cPath=64&page=1 Sorry for the plug

but,, your right, the doors that we make ore for off-road use only. They do not come with the Steel reinforcements that stock doors have. Most of the customer that buy these have roll cages or are show only so its not a problem.

I've seen CF doors for 2g, but not 1g. ####ers really tend to neglect making products for 1g's. Just because the fact it's not a ####ing chick car. CF door with the doors frame being aluminum, would be nice. Very strong, yet lighter.

FYI: 1Gb Talon doors are ~85lbs each! (urethane skins alone are ~11lbs each) Gutting stock doors can bring them down to ~35lbs. This is still with retaining weather seal and glued-in factory glass.

If you want to save more weight, there might be another 8-10lbs in those factory doors, if you do not care about weather/sound seal.

So bare this in mind when you are about spend $1000 on FG/CF doors in the name weight savings!

However, if you need a fashion statement of CF doors, I can't help you there .

has anyone seen teh 2006 Ralliart eclipse? All carbon fiber panels.. with 4g63 and AWD... It is pretty much taking an evo and putting a 4g body on it... I wish Eclipses had 4g63's again...

If you just clicked on the gtfabrications.com link you would have seens CF hatch for the 1G right there. Yeah i would just gut the doors to save the weight and put the 1500$/each into speed mods. Im going to be getting a CF hood(oem), and cf hatch, both will be painted over though, I merely want the weight savings of CF, but staying sleeper.

I found a set of carbon fiber 1st Gen doors on this site. The doors weigh 12lbs each. They also have a carbon fiber hood and rear hatch. The rear hatch weighs 10lbs. Have no idea though about the legality of having these parts on your car.
