(relatively) cheap carbon parts

I just picked up a carbon fibre front fender for my bike from an eBay seller known as "back-wheels" (a Brit operating out of Portugal). His prices are dirt cheap and the man is a pleasure to deal with. Worth a look if you're in need of a carbon fix.....

inderocker is an unknown quantity at this point
Speaking of front fenders, what front fender are you using on your 900RR setup?

I am using fender from a 2002 Triumph Daytona 955 (based on info found on the following site: http://www.vtwo.demon.co.uk/firestorm/firestorm.htm). The 900RR fender is God awful ugly IMO plus the fastening system for the Triumph fender is cheaper to buy too (an added bonus). My new carbon fender is an exact copy of the Triumph unit I have on now (I will be selling my current fender as soon as the new one is on).

Mikstr - Do you have the fender yet? I need to get a different fender for my bike (GSXR forks) which already has a c/f fender but it's not as nice as I would like.

yes, just got it today. I had a quick look at it and it seems fine (although I am not an expert of carbon fibre). Considering the price though, you can't go wrong.

Any way you could throw a link up? I Did (tried to) a search and found that seller but cannot find a single bike part sold by him. As you may have noticed I suck at searches!
