on the issue of the skid plate; carbon fiber would not work. one good hit and it would shatter. The 911 version of this is stainless steel.
Just sheet metal.

there is also a nice metal front skid plate. I have gone through a plastic set already.

The rear diffuser would be nice in carbon fiber.

Also another nice idea would be if you could make a aftermarket Air box that bolted to fender like the OEM, but allowed for the placement of the cone filter (Evolution motor sports) so that it is sealed and can act like a ram air system without the hot engine air getting in.
