I would be really impressed if they can make a full CF mold. Someone tried to do this in the past and the hard part comes in making all of the tabs for the various pieces to fit. That is, its hard to make the tabs that are found on the OEM piece on a CF mold. IIRC
I hope they can do it and would love to see pics. If they can make a full CF piece I wonder if the cost will be reasonable. This isn't easy to do folks.

I'd be willing to get some, but are they complete replacements? Or just overlays? And I'm also wondering about the quality, I've seen some very good ones and some not so very good ones.

They HAVE to be overlays. I just went to their website and read this:
http://www.teamprototype.com/cftype_...cftype_01.html
Q: Why don’t you guys just manufacture the part? Why even wrap a part?
A: #1 The price to manufacture CF parts is costly, so if you really want FULL CF parts, be prepared to spend some good loot. We usually charge about $400-$500 to make a mold for a set of "A Pillars" and about $1500 for an OEM hood. #2 These are just prices for the molds, the parts are extra and sometimes for us to even consider making a mold for someone #3 we usually have the client commit to a minimum amount of 10 units.
Most of our clients request manufacturing, usually are shops who black label our product and mark 'em as their own which is perfectly fine with us .... as long as they are happy and they make their money consequently giving us more projects in the future.

It is hard to make these pieces without using OEM pieces. (If it is full replacement) I know cuz we went with overlay on our 350Z products. This is not any stick on overlay you see on the market. Those will make your interior feel sticky. Here are some picture of ours. Of course same item can be made for RX-7.
