I am not aware of any commercially-made splitter that is functional, and even if it is functional then it may or may not be a good match for your car's particular setup. Most racers make their own so that it works properly with the rest of the car.
Carbon fiber is really more for looks, as it will tend to splinter and possibly cause tire damage if it scrapes the track in actual racing. Tegris is generally considered the better material, although ABS and Alumalite are cheaper options. HDPE is usually used as the buffer material between the splitter and the road.
I would try asking this question in our racing subforum to see what the racers recommend.
