We've seen carbon fiber with a translucent colored overlay before, but we haven't seen colored carbon fiber. Luckily for the aftermarket and supercar industries, the esteemed rally engineers from Prodrive have developed carbon fiber that is chip resistant, UV stable, and most importantly, colored. 

We just want to see a Lotus in that dark green fiber, or a Ferrari in the red. That said, red and green are the only colors that the company has figured out at this juncture.
