Default carbon fiber radiator support

My question is were can I find a company that makes a carbon fiber radiator support for my 2000 trans am. I have just gotten my twin turbo's done and I have no need for that old cover and lid and i'm looking for a 93-97 cover instead. I've been looking for 3 hours and cant seem to find what i'm looking for. I have seen a thread about this before on here but I cant find that either any help would be appreciated

No that was just a piece of carbon fiber glass composite. Basically a sheet of carbon fiber cut into shape and attached to the top of the existing metal support by adhesive probably.

Thanks guys for helping i really can't find anymore info on those covers i think if i can't find what i'm looking for i'll end up just buying that polished stainless one from BMR. Really wish it was a nice carbon fiber one though.

I thought about doing it looking at other peoples work but I don't think I could do it without having it turn out right.
