Bmw M3/M4 lightweight door cards? (Non gts)

Does anyone know any reputable shops that sell aftermarket door cards for our f8x cars? Or at least a reputable shop that can make a custom set? Preferably made of carbon fiber but any lightweight aftermarket ones will do. I would just like the door handle/strap and window/mirror controls on it. Attached some examples below. I've seen a similar post to this but did not get any answers.

Actually they do but it looks like they don't have anything for the f82/f80 - except the full doors.

Just got a response right now, they said they have custom door cards for the f80 and said they are not cheap and not currently selling them. So answer is no although I'm assuming if the right buyer wants them, for the right price they will sell them....

All I’ve been able to find for f80 is a flat carbon sheet. But much rather something with contour and spots for the controls like the above.


EDIT: Heard back. They don’t make them currently and have no plans to. Said they were focused on G8X product development
