1967 camaro A/S project

I like the look of the carbon fiber roll bar protector bit I'm not sure if it meets the rule book specifications for padding. It reads: Adequate padding must have minimum1/4-inch compression or meet SFI Spec 45.1. I don't see how carbon fiber can be used as a padding as it doesn't compress. The Bickle site doesn't say this protector meets the SFI spec. I can see using it on the side bar to protect from scratches, but not in the head area as it offers no protection. Do you plan to use a different padding for the head area? Am I missing something here?
