Unless you have mods done to your car already... there isn't much point (with the exception of aesthetics) in CFing your car... Put that money to good use and mod it first.

Pit Road M has CF doors...$$$...but you lose the impact bars, making a side collision very dangerous.
CF and FG hoods are readily available and weigh alot less than the stocker.
You can get a CF hatch, but it's the glass that makes the hatch heavy.
There are FG fenders available.
Not much you can do for the rear fenders/roof.
You might be able to shed a couple hundred pounds...maybe.

Also... beware the ninjas. They add like 150lbs a piece... but theyre neccesary.

i was thinking i would replace some of my body parts with CF instead. i've gotta replace some of them anyway.  like both of my rear quarter panels and front and rear bumper.

Check out GT fabrications and carbon creations.
 
CC has a front bumber made from carbon. GT has doors and the carbon hatch. Thats all that is on the market

1 this is a wast of time yes these cars a heavy but just think if you have to replace it 2 this i alot o money 3 they did make the hatch its sometimes on ebay if ur lucky. 4 if you want after market stuff go with fiberglass or someting and only worry bout the hood and hatch.  5  worry bout the inside there is alot of weight in there trust me wen i had mine i had a plan but still lookin for a new vr-4
