You could contact a silly-money carbon fibre place and ask them for Clear Gel coat ones, or black pigment gel'ed ones?

I think that Steve is hinting that a certain carbon bits manufacturer may also do some parts in alternative materials and I would tend to believe him.

dax ones get my vote
(I might be a little biased though)

dax use 205/50 R15, 205/45 R16 or 205/40 R17 and the wings are the same for all

Best thing about the MNR cycle wings is that because there's so much material, you can cut/file them down to just about any length/style you want.
