Carbon Fiber license plate frame

Just got a 2008 MCS after my 2005 was totaled. Iam getting the carbon fiber bug and have picked out all the JCWparts I want. But want a good quality carbon fiber license plate frame, anyone know of a source?

Interesting link...
So... how do you remove the license plate frame?
Is it simple or is it kind of a hassle?
I ask this since I always take off my license plates and frames when I wash my car.

Takes about two seconds to remove the frame, then you can remove the four license plate screws.

Ooh... I might try this. It may even kinda match my JCW CF plinth. I'll see after I get the car in.

It is a very good match to the JCW CF just be sure to ask for one that the weave angles right, they have right and left, if you don't specify you may get left.
