The steel rear bulkhead has a massive effect on the torsional stiffness of the shell. So might a good CF replacement, but only if it was bonded in correctly, and that really needs factory conditions.
Why bother?

How is it a fire hazard?

Ever put a flame to any CF or GRP?So no one has experience of them then?

Try it.
Even more fun if you have the odd bit of petrol about.

Or my GRP shell!
That said, if it is a CF replacement for the steel there's no way you'll get it in and bonded without either a huge amount of work, or screwing the shell up.

It's not a major fire hazard. It's certainly less combustible than most interior trim!

Because that's what makes a Mini, all the different extras we can add that makes it one of a kind.
If you ever do all the things to your Mini (if you ever get one) that you say you are going to do, be prepared to be blasted.

So is 90% of things people buy for Mini's doesn't mean there's not a market for it
