The only extensive amount of carbon I found for the m2 is: Hood, trunk lid, roof, fenders, and doors. But no A pillars, or rear fenders which requires extensive cutting and spot welds to be drilled out to remove the factory rear fender, and then rivets to be put in for the new carbon panel. This is what had me skeptical that the parts were real carbon, plus the A pillar too since that is a structural component for roll overs.
Also if you do have carbon doors you better get a full cage that has a brace by the door for side intrusion in the event of a crash, carbon may be strong but when you get into a crash it doesnt flex and crumple which still allows for the door to protect the occupants, carbon kind of shatters or snaps into large pieces. So if you get hit you will likely lose the door and have no protection the initial impact. They also sell door crash beams made out of aluminium for the inside of doors which can help solve this.
ok no problem i can send some details for you
