How much weight does a CF hood save?
Cuz our hoods aren't very big to begin with. I know that every 100lbs less is .1 second less on your 1/4 mile time, but I can't imagine a CF hood saving more than 30-40 pounds on our cars.

Rep Power: 419 Yeah. Our hoods weigh about 30lbs. My FiberImages CF hood weighs about 15lbs. I know that the SunnyStylin CF hood is the lightest of all CF hoods. About 10lbs for the 7th gen civics.
