Should I get a carbon fiber hood
Just got the word from my salesman here at my dealership that the new incentive will be saving me another grand on the car i ordered. Naturally im going to do the irresposible thing and get more mods put on when it comes in with that grand. So I'm thinking, header and carbon fiber hood. Does anyone have a CF hood and could you tell me how good it fits and if it is really that much lighter.....
thanks guys

I already have the stage 2 worked into my deal. Have you really had people bust your hood up..... thats probably the only thing that would really worry me. Couldn't i just take the struts off that hold the hood up......

Probably not going to happen, I just think it attracts alot of unwanted attention to a car in a parking lot. Paint it and no one will care..

Getting a carbon fiber hood to save weight and only buying the hood alone yields a very insignificant amount of weight dropped. You'd be better off dieting, sure as hell less expensive.
