Just curious as to why you want to get a carbon Fiber hood?
Also just want to make you aware of the fact(if you already dont know), god forbid, you get into an accident, the hood shatters. A normal Hood is supposed to take the force and crumple. It is at least to my knowledge.

c43
I thought cf was much much stronger that steel, three times i Believe, so it would take more impact? also it is much lighter maybe saving 40 pounds... which is a big deal in the front

just my opinion, and this is coming from a "stock" guy, but the carbon hood is gonna look pretty ricey on a C43. I would say if your concerned about weight for racing, take your sub box out when you want to hit the track and you will get 40lbs back easy.
