Carbon Fiber Gear highlighted recently a Ferrari 355 gas cap paperweight. Made by RaceChairs.com, it's constructed of a 6″ x 6″ piece of carbon fiber, a colored suede underside and a real (but unused) gas cap from a Ferrari 355. (Also available with a Lamborghini Diablo gas cap.) The carbon fiber weave is clearcoated for shiny finish, and the bottom of the paperweight is covered in your choice of black, yellow, or red suede, to ensure it won't scratch your desk. The gas cap is highly polished aluminum with the Ferrari logo on the center. Optional: have an engraved plaque added or get wall hangers for display. $325, but just $199 on RaceChairs.com at the time of this writing. Looks like something our sister site, autoblog, might take a liking to.[Thanks, Dave]

I'd rather fashion a paperweight out of a piece of track pad, a nut, or a bolt from a track vehicle that one our American Soldiers has driven. Instead of wasting $200 or $300, I'm giving my money to a family who's lost their Soldier while he or she was protecting our Nation. Also, I agree with Richard, there are other paperweights that cost a heck of a lot less. But...to each their own, and I'm not knocking anyone to wants to buy the paperweight.
