looked on the weight loss guide, cant find the weight of a hood, and a trunk? the metal ones i know the cf ones weigh about 15 lb (vis) i dont want to start a long thread about the weight redux, just want to know the weights of the stock hood and trunks

 

What gen Prelude?

 

The stock trunk is fine compared to the cf one. Though if you like the looks of it. Replace both. The front hood is a change. You will notice the weight difference also. Just make sure you get a set of hood pins for safety.

 

I don't remember the correct weight for the stock hood/trunk but it does take off some weight.

Maybe 10-15lbs each, maybe satan_srv (joel) remember the numbers.

I'm talking about a 5th gen, I don't know about 4th gen.

There was a member here that had massive weight reduction on his 5th gen. It helped him shave off some time on the 1/4 mile.

I think his SN was Bolivianfuego or something like that.

Unless you're going turbo or major NA build up, don't waste your money on a cf trunk/hood unless you're going for looks.

yeah, Bolivian Fuego did run some impressive times, but he had NO interior at all. drivers seat and dash i believe.

I sold my CF hood, but there's a story to it.

My CF trunk is currently pending, 2 guys interested.

 

how much you selling it for? Im talking about the 5th gens. So you no one knows how much it would weigh...someone should really weigh it. I would guess 50+ lbs?

asking price is $200 but I got 3 people interested right now, highest offer get it.

I don't think it's 50lbs, more like 36lbs.

There was a thread about this, let me look in to it.

 

I'm not sure about the stock 5th gen trunk. It'll be a little bit more w/ the stock spoiler. I know my CF trunk weighs 15 pounds though!

check out this thread: https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=1

or do a archived search on "CF trunk"

 

doesnt say how much a stock 5th gen hood and trunk weighs though...the problem is i can supposedly get a VIS cf hood and trunk for 300 a piece. I'm also putting in CAI and i want know how much the hood/trunk weighs so i can estimate if its worth it. i think im just going to have to take it off and weigh it.....

 

well, for the trunk you'll be saving 10 pounds at least. the hood, maybe 15.

i don't think it's worth it, unless you're buliding a race car w/ b00st, NA, SC...etc

basically it's all for looks.

it's your car, you do what you want.

 

off topic, where are u located sticky i want to buy your hood. (216)233-6682 -tony im in columbus, ohio.

 

cf trunks are barely lighter than stock...the weight is the spoiler
