Default Carbon Fiber Boot

Anyone know of another company apart from Amuse that sells a real carbon fiber boot lid for our cars?

I remember seeing one a while ago but the search doesnt want to find it.

The boot lid, the trunk lid, the thing you lift to put objects in the back of your car, the rear window is mounted in it with a wiper. Instead of it being made out of pressed metal its made out of carbon fiber.

It is a weight reduction mod.

I think if you want to reduce weight as a mod you would want to lose weight up front. Traction will get worse if you lighten the rear.
