and i know you guys are gunna ask... but heres how the car feels now when im driving it... you definately feel the front lighter!!! The weight distribution is better, though you dont feel it too much when accelerating in a str8 line, you definately feel the car to be a lot less nose heavy around corners!!! I am very satisfied... and it looks great!!! Its hard to capture how good it looks on camara at night b/c of the flash and b/c of how the silver CF reflects!!!

Are you quite certain? The weight difference should be insignificant, and you shouldn't be able to "feel" any difference whatsoever.

Remember he saves weight in 2 ways, which adds up. First the CF hood vs. factory probably a 25lbs-30lbs savings from up high on the car. Second his wallet is much, much lighter. :p

Looks cool, although I might not like the inconsistency with it on my car.

I guess I'll be the first not to like it. I think the work done was great and I'm sure a hell of a job to do but I can't get over how you see these lines running through your hood and then the rest of the car is smooth. To me, it's like looking at a car with a differnt paint job on only parts of the car. But that's just my opinion.

Again, I can't get over how creative it looks but I just don't like the look overall.
