Weight?

Any reason I'd buy this hood over a standard c/f hood?

Either way I'll paint it body color.

Re: Carbon/Kevlar Hood (Reid)

Weight should be around the same as any other CF hood.

Main point is the strength of the material. More impact resistant. I'm thinking of making a batch of these but just wanted to get your opinions.

Hahaha. Have you seen Black Hawk Down? One shot in the engine block through the hood of that Jeep. A bulletproof hood would be handy.....
