Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but I don't have a lot of experience with carbon fiber parts...

Does anybody know if a carbon fiber trunk is strong enough to support a gt-wing installed for track-day driving? Particularly a Voltex center-mount? I know properly made carbon fiber is supposed to be stronger than steel, but I doubt Seibon's products are held to THAT standard.

I would be very surprised if the CF trunk was not strong enough.

Hm didnt even think about this, but what about the trunk smart sensor and lock cylinder? Are there provisions for that? I'd hate to get rid of my sensor.

I'm liking the carbon fiber hood. The one on the red with multiple vents looks badass. Any idea what that's gonna run? Thats the same one Forgestar used on their HotLava. Looks good painted.

- I wonder if that CF seat delete would rattle really bad if you had bass knocking in the trunk.

- Can the top part of the CF seat delete be folded down?

- And with the CF trunk, can you attach the same closing mechanism to it like stock trunk?
