Actually carbon is very heat resistant.. That is why they use them in break rotors.. Over a long period of time i think it will start to yellow but that will take a while... And thats the resin not the carbon...

Can anyone say $500 custom heat shield? I CAN!

DOMFD3S, how do you know as a fact it will burn and it will yellow? Carbon fiber burns but you wont get it lit even with a lighter, unless you do it for a long time. Also it will we are seeing that is will only yellow, if the resin put on what not vaccumed properly and heat treated..

Carbon fiber is not the miraculous material everyone makes it to be. In fact, carbon fiber is more ideal than metal in only a certain number of applications.
