Uh well, OK - good luck - but sorry, IMHO, clearcoated carbon fiber is ugly as snot. It looks like epoxied black burlap.

Cool - if your trying to legitimately reduce weight and go for strength for racing applications, but what's the savings in spending major bucks replacing already lightweight hood and urethane bumpers?
Seems kind of "poser" for a street car.

I don't get it, but hey, we all see our Z's through different eyes.

Woh, woh, woh... That would look so good with your CS with black rims. Two tone baby! Silver on black is mean! *sigh* I dont think it would match my Pikes Peak tho...

now that I am not posting from my cell phone... All the CF hoods I have seen for the Z have not been lighter then the stock hood... They have been a few pounds heavier... I am going back and forth weither or not to get the hood... I wasnt sure what I was getting when I ordered the kit because I never saw a photo or heard about it! I thought it was only going to be a front lip... I am still shocked it was a full front bumper! Some of the best CF I have seen in a long time... I didnt see any imperfections in the front bumper.. I havent opened up the rest of the kit... I cant wait to see how the wing lays out...

The CF hood on my car is of good quality and is lighter than the stock unit. I'm not sure as of pricing, but if you want, I can definitely ask him how much it cost.

who made your hood? was it VIS?

I heard that if I get a different CF hood the color of the CF wont really match...

Im going to try and scrape up some :loot: this weekend...
