If you were to get CF or FRP door or hatch, you have to install a set of rollbars for a safety reason and to maintain structural strength of your car.
yeah but the enzo was designed to be structurally sound with carbon fiber, so they didnt need roll bars. if your car was designed to be all carbon fiber too then you wouldnt need a rollbar, but your car WASNT designed to be made of carbon fiber. Hence, if you remove some strength by going to carbon/fiberglass parts, that structure has got to be made up somewhere else.
