ive heard anywhere in the neighborhood of 40-75lbs. i would tend to think ours is somewhere in between due to its above average size.

i dont see why it wouldnt look nice, the thing is that it will not be that noticable as for a lighter color car. i have sterling mist, so i know its gonna stand out which i want

Im defenitly interested! I'm opening my own shop and I called Fiber Images to open an account so I could distribute, and they wanted a 10 hood buy in! So if some fellow .ORG members are interested Ill buy 2 hoods and if 8 more people want to join in then I could open the account and get a discount for everyone! Let me know!

Do you think we can get colors for (EXP.) a blue carbon fiber hood on a Gray Lustre Maxima. Or just regular carbon fiber.
