It is a very functional product and will definitely withstand more abuse than any material out there. Is there any other material you could make hoods out of that would save a crapload of weight, but when it flips up and smacks a windshield at 70mph would just flex and retain its shape? I think metal would probably kill you and smash the **** out of your car and anything fiberglass would shatter all over the place and creat a huge mess.

I would not even responded. Anyone w/common sense would know a lighter hood helps the car performance wise because is lighter. Some people dont even know the definition of Riced out car. You got a CF hood. Looks awesome to me. I may get one in the near future.

Trust me, i see CF's uses. Its AMAZING the weight saving you can achieve with CF, and for people interested in performance, its a great way to go. But i prefer painted CF rather than its raw form. Once again, just MHO...

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I greatly appreciate it, here I was a couple of months ago wanting to get rid of the car and just stop the whole modding thing. I'm really glad I didn't. Things are finally starting to come together with it.
