I guess you can machine a derlin rod into a tube of the desired diameter and shock shaft diameter. Then cut it into disks of the the desired thickness and drill oil passage holes.

but unless you fabricated shock bodies of a non standard diameter, it would be cheaper and easier to modify off the shelf shock pistons to your needs.

I believe CF shock pistones might rapidly wear the shock bodies.
If you want to go that path, then look for a company that will CNC cut a CF sheet to your drawings.
