What would be really cool is to use red carbor fiber:
 And embed black vinyl letters "PORSCHE" in it so it looks like the old style black letter reflector but is a much more durable product!!

Thom,
Had to post the photo. Car is not completely put back together yet, after painting, but the back end looks great.

You might try contacting Thom directly thru his website rather than replying to this old thread: http://rennlight.com/reflector/ TT

I don't think I have any fiberglass ones left, but I know I have a few carbon ones. I have no idea when I'll make more.

Ok didn't know, Just ordered a FG one from your site a while ago. If i can paint the CF one, sorry haven't worked with CF before, then will go with that. Let me know how to proceed to get the delta $ covered.

Thom, would procuding a few 911R carbon fiber tail light housings be out of the question? I'd think they'd suit the reflector substitute perfectly.

There's someone already doing 911R lights (more than one shop, IIRC) - you might hit them up and see if they'll do a 1-off in carbon. I've been tempted to inquire about a set myself.
I am definitely out of fiberglass panels, and I only have 1 or 2 carbon ones left. The guy who makes them from me in getting ready to move his shop (again!) so I have no idea when he'll be able to make another run.
