Vaporwear CF bonnet?

Did I miss the thread on this one?

No details, especially price, but given it weighs about 12lbs, I'd say it costs as much as the car... That's real german CF, no fiberglass with a single layer of CF for appearances.
now, if only I could get one...

Yeh, I don't care for the looks, but the stock bonnet weighs like 30kg, and this one, 4.6kg--that's some really serious weight savings! Not too many MINI mods will garner you 60lbs (I should know, I've tried most of them...)
