Ok to grind carbon soles?

I have a set of Vittoria carbon soled shoes for old style Time cleats. I want to install Look cleats but a 7/8"X 1/4" rail surrounds the rear of where the cleat would mount. Will I kill the strength of the sole if I take a angle grinder to this rail so I can mount my look cleats? The kid at the bike shop suggested this as a fix when I described my problem when looking at their new shoes.
