the carbon fiber handles are more likely to break then the OEM handles. The problem is you will be touching the handles everytime you step in to the vehicle, the carbon fiber cant take that much wear. not only that if you have ever touched a carbon fiber hood before you will know that they feel so cheap, they fell just like fiberglass.
if you reinforce the CF with a bit fo plastic inside it may flex a but if you pull really fuggin hard but it will tkae it i have a red CF hockey stick its great but it is made to flex and be strong. still dont like cf on cars unless needed or painted or both but hey just helpin.

Some of us honda owners (The ones that realy like to go fast) dont have any interior and only 1 seat! I am a MAJOR stickler for weaght! I HATE putting anything new on my car unless its completly nececary or lighter than what was on there before! The only things I like to put on that arent nececary and werent there before are items that add HP or TQ... Thats my view on the whols subject of CF on cars! Its slim and sexy! :toothless
