Leonard has informed me that the CF hoods will weigh 20 +/- 1 pound..

 

how much...
the other is this...
will it contain a latch or allow us to use OE latch?
Will it have nozzle holes as most after market won't.

I may look into this b/c my hood is chipped... might as well get one of these.

 

its a straight bolt on. no need for hood pins.
it will work with the stock latches.

as for the sprayers, not sure..

pricing info is in the ForSale section

Carbon Fiber hoods $475
Carbon Kevlar (blue, yellow, red) $575
Fiberglass $350..

prices are tenative.. but i will be looking at the hood in person sometime next week, and will check on quality/etc...

20 pounds.. WOW>. that's light.

 

Any idea how much the stock hood weighs?

 

apparantly around 70lbs? Atleast that's what someone posted in the for sale forum. Although I suspect that that's shipping weight, not actual weight.

friggin point of buying a $400 hood that needs to be painted, then? I just don't undertand...

 

No, you don't paint the CF hoods. Part of the attraction is how they look. To be completley honest, they would look great on a black car. Plus there is no paint to chip. You're hood and mine both look like **** cause of the paint. Let me dig up a picture for ya.

 

The CF look on a hood looks really LOUD (some may say ricey) on a car (especially a 4 door sedan). I am not sure how good they would look on a pearl/white car.

Oh a white car yes, it will be loud. But It hink I my black max, unless you are up close probably couldn't even tell.
