too bad the carbon fiber is rivited onto the original sheetmetal.
every thing but the roof and the space fram will unbolt from a NSX. Peice of cake to fix if you dont tweek the frame. All the pannles are aluminum and damn thin at that so the cerbon would probobly be stronger. I have seen 800 HP NSX's and they are still runnin N/A. the hotest one I saw had ITB's and a full titainium exaust. Sounded like a F1 car when it went by.
CF is the same strength as steel but 10% of the weight - if he tapped something like a shopping cart it would only put some scratches in the epoxy, not destroy a panel.
If he got in a crash or something, he could most likely go back to the shop and have them mold him another piece. CF itself isn't that expensive, but structural pieces need to be cured in a special pressure-controlled oven that costs like $100,000 for a cheap one...
