Does anyone know of any Tri bars that will fit flat aero carbon handlebars? Can’t seem to find any. Thinking the only way might be to change handlebar to an aluminium one and fit to that.

Phone a tri specialist shop like Sigmasports or Tri UK and ask?

Giant used to make some for the Propel. Your difficulty will be finding s universal fitting though as the aero profiles will vary and you don't want a clamp that exerts uneven pressure, pinching certain bits may weaken the bars as they won't have been designed for this.
 
Unless your handlebar has specifically been designed to take tri bars - you can't fit them.
The CF won't be designed for the compression forces.

don't even think about it. either get some carbon bars with integrated tri extensions or buy aluminium to fit tri extensions to, which is probably the cheaper route
