Carbon is actually a terrible choice for a skid plate, Aramid or fiberglass will last much much longer if you want a composite plate.
Carbon is not impact tolerant at all nor does it have a high flex capability, both of which I think are needed in a skid plate.
To use carbon in a high impact are you really need to sandwich it with another material but the carbon is totally for looks in this application.

I believe you are right they are 30 min from where I live. I do not know them real good but through other friends that know them they say set up time of the mold takes a lot of time and they probably wait to get enough orders of 1 kind to make it worthwhile. I'm sure if they were making a killing on them they would be pumping them out left and right. When a company orders them they are buying a lot of one kind.

I had a LightSpeed skidplate on my DRZ for 5 years of rocky trails and gravel roads.
It still looked almost new when I sold the bike.

I think P3 use to make stuff for E-line not anymore.

Think that means its a sandwich? Or do they offer a choice of different plates? The former would be a good way to go.
