would it have the compliance required to be on our cars ? im pretty sure the bmw's etc are much more rigid standard chassis than ours
the coupe could put alot more stress on it ?

Considering the weight of a Coupe, its rather pointless. There are much easier and cheaper ways to remove weight. What are they mate.

Just for info: I found this on the web a while ago and its quite interesting, I'm sure the same could be applied to making a strut brace http://www.bmeres.com/carbonframe1.htm

what would be the point of that ? its hardly going to save much weight or make it much stiffer
better just using plain alloy
