If there's one thing i did NOT buy the hood for is to save wheight. As everyone said, i wouldn't spend all that extra $ to save a few lbs. I bought the hood because i like the look of carbon fiber and it was cheaper than getting a fiberglass one and getting it painted. I love my hood :-D , except for the yellow part llol

I also like carbon fiber hood not just for weight but there is a wide choice in vent styles . I like ones with large heat extractor vents on the front. Turning yellow would urck me also ( your not alone )
thumbs up on what you like .
