why do you care what we think? mod your car for yourself and stop asking questions.

edit: from my research, it seems like you're in the market for a cf hood. You've also asked questions about certin style. It seems like you have no insight in what to buy for your car, you turn to the internet to create your style. basicly you're just a sheep.
If everyone on here said it was rice, then you'll probably not put it on your car.
I have a cf hood on my car, only because it was cheaper than OEM hood (had to repair a damage), but i'm going to be painting my hood to match my car's color. I bought the hood for the weight, but weight was never a problem for me -price was. Horsepower > Weight. Power to weight ratio. If your car is weak, remove the weight, if your car is powerful, dont worry about the weight.

i only like them on certain cars.

i have one because of the weight savings and it was cheaper than buying a metal hood when i had an accident.

So no seats, mirrors, fuel pump covers, trunk, shift ****, rear wing, fenders, bezels, airbag tray, strut bars, fuel lid cover, head-liner, toilet seat, bidet, douch nozzles, condoms, maxi-pads for your jdm vagina, parachute pants, etc.

Do whatever, I don't care....You shouldn't care
