I got the Sir USDM CF hood from Vis racing on my Crx and it's definately way lighter than OEM! I have no weight numbers but it's obvious.

you could use lexan instead of glass.
and paint the carbon fiber, cause the clear coat on it wont last long, plus it could attract unwanted attention (theives).
