Refabrication will be a pain as many of the hd800 parts have to be made into 2 halves then fused together afterwards to make the component (halves need to be made to release the cured carbon fiber from the mold) this would open up opportunities to sandwich various materials though, like suggested above, kevlar which is used in speaker cones due to its rigid structure and weight. So far, the only disassembly i've ever seen is taking off the pads and removing the cable and some of the leona plastic to do a hard wire. Looks like everyone is understandably scared of ruining their investment. After removal of pads however you can see screws (only seen pics so far as i'm getting my hd800 some time next week) which look kind of like torx screws or something like that (use of allen key perhaps). Cant wait to massacre my hd800 but would appreciate some guiding words so that I dont botch it up and waste a grand and a half. Another concern is the making of the mold itself, hope the releasing agent doesnt pull off any paint as I want to keep the original parts in good condition. Not interested in the vinyl stuff that you stick onto the surfaces to give a carbon fiber look. Has to be the real deal. Good news is once the mold is made, I can keep reusing it to make new parts, experiment with silver alufiber or hybrid weaves to create colour effects and acoustic properties of various weaves such as plain, twill and satin. Got the idea from seeing my friend's carbon fiber violin he bought for 5 grand. Sounded very lively in comparison to his old wood one.
