No the clam isn't carbon fiber - but you do bring up a good point about this version. It is unllikely, with the revised body style next year, these parts will be readily available. If a Sport 260 gets hit, damaged, etc - it is going to be extraordinarily difficult to duplicate this. Those exposed areas on the mohawk, the section between the hatch and roof, and the front panels will likely never get duplicated to what the factory has done. I also have a concern about the availability of actual Lotus scoops and splitter in carbon fiber.
