the hood was custom and made to order... it cost me a pretty penny but well worth it in my opinion. I am sorta painting it...dont worry everyone will see when I have it installed on my car.. I am posting up pics here the second its installed. As far as weight savings go, the hood is definately way lighter then the OEM hood, I would say 1/2 the weight if not less. My friend has a black CF hood on his W203 from the same company and he told me that his CF hood is just as sturdy as the OEM hood. :v

Great weight savings for the front. The car should handle better. Maybe you'll be 51/49% when you are through! Can you paint CF to look like stock paint and match the rest of the car if looks are not important? I guess you could make the same hood in FG at 75% less cost and accomplish the same goal?
