Decreases the weight of the vehicle so you have less crap to drag around, oh and some people find it good looking [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]

ya hood can be painted on ofcourse...
id leave it blk, but i think our cars hoods r a bit to short, so it looks kinda funny [imo]

a lot of ppl say it reduces weight..which it does..but i say mostly looks.
if u want ur car really light u gotta do more then change to cf hood..
i hate ppl who think it will be lighter by just getting a hood..
if i get one, it will b just for looks, like the kaminari one~
