I wonder if it will yellow like the gloss finish hoods do? I had a full Dry CF hood on my S2K and it was super light!

With the S2K Seibons hoods weighed more than the OEM one, is that the case with the X too? The X's hood is small but its pretty heavy

I'm not very sure how the color will go. I called Seibon to ask they said it's covered under their 6-month warranty. So we'll see...

As for weight the stock actually is very light when you get it off the car...I wish I could weight the CF and stock one...

Honestly I have not seen a better fit than Seibon on the X's. We have a gloss finish hood on our time attack shop X and that hoods fitment is dead on too.

^ Thats good to hear, with some other makes and models their fitment has had issues. I have heard they have been getting better lately though.

If you ever get a chance to weigh them against the OEM, please post it I am very curious about the difference.
