Default Carbon fibre rear window panels for sapphire

Does anyone know where I can get carbon fibre replacement panels for the 2 panels by the rear screen on a saph cossie and also the 2 panels on the rear windows. Mike Rainbird used to list them but he says he no longer does them. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
James

My mate that does film props does some carbo stuff, has a vacuum over etc, if stuck I can ask him, he's currently doing props for three major films, inc batman.
He's just done a load of poly HANDGRENADES(200) but would not let me have a single one, looked absolutely real, even had rust on them, rolled them in iron filings that have been left out in rain a few days while poly still soft so it sticks!!

They would not have been the Creative Carbon ones, as he hasn't made any for years. I have managed to twist Marcus's arm to do a one-off set for Matt (along with the roof gutters), but ask him how long he has been waiting! Hence why I just say they are no longer available, as after these, Marcus doesn't EVER want to do anymore . If you want to see how good the Creative Carbon ones are, dig up the copy of Performance Ford with Justin Egan's white Sapphire in (my old car) - G888 GCL .
