Exclamation CF hood? Looks sweet!

This would look so sweet! This is a render in photoshop, but I'm woundering where can you get a CF hood?
Tell me what you think of this pic.

I know that the CF hoods are mainly for show.. But isn't the aluminum hood more or less as light as the "Street CF" hoods you'd see? I've seen CF Liftoff hoods that weigh less, but your looking at a fortune...

Yeah, I think the weight is the same give or take about 5lbs. Also depends upon the quality/materials used in the CF hood. Many use fiberglass for framing and shape (but have the visible parts done in CF).

we have a carbon hood now - a bit heavier than stock (as most carbon hoods are, since they are fiberglass with carbon overlays 9 times out of 10)
