Upgrade Parts when using selfmade Enclosure

So I have build an Enclosure and it works - yeahhh. It gets to 42c° when printing PC, which works okay for most parts. That is good enough for me. 

My question: I will need to reprint the idler leaver, swivel and nut carrier - correct? I think the parts of the official Enclosure are printed in PCCF. However I can basically never order that filament. So I don't have that.

Would printing these parts in PETG-CF or regular Polycarbonat help at all? What are they printed in the original? PETG?

 

Any feedback would be well appreciated..

RE: Upgrade Parts when using selfmade Enclosure

I managed to get one roll of Prusa PCCF with my enclosure order, I think every roll they got was already sold because it never became in stock... 

The upgraded PCCF parts are idler-lever, idler-swivel, idler-nut and fan shroud, you can see theparts here:

I guess other companies also make PCCF filament that would work, but I remember seeing that people have printed parts from ABS/ASA too.

You could probably also buy the upgraded parts from prusa.
