Yes its the same one I ordered Cooper now to see how it looks. Red is absolutely stunning - but might be too much for some people.

So, is this stuff carbon fiber, or is it fabric? I thought you couldn't color carbon fiber, due to how it was made. Or is there a way to dye
carbon now?

It's a composite. The colored portion is actually fiberglass. Kevlar is harder to dye than fiberglass, but is possible.

It appears as though they are using the term fabric instead of cloth (which we all know).
