It's Carbon Fiber. they do also have Cf look-alike vinyl, although it's more of a dry carbon look.

theres CF parts, then theres CF wrapped parts. A lot of companies will make a fiberglass part and then wrap it in CF for the look.

a 100% CF hood would be ~$1000 and probably for race only use. 99% of the aftermarket CF parts you can buy for the cobalt are FG with a CF top layer.
