Stock - 37lbs
CF - 14lbs

FRP will be slightly heavier than CF. We won't know exactly how much until we receive the trunks, but it won't be a huge difference.

We recently sold out of all versions of this trunk. We will be receiving an order of carbon trunks around the middle of the month and we will be receiving the FRP trunks around the beginning of December.

The carbon trunks are $1194.96 and the FRP trunks are $795. In both cases the price is the price. We recently shipped a trunk to Texas for $150 and I would expect your cost to be similar to that.

Well, I guess nobody's perfect

As far as 1x1 hoods go, I've definitely been looking and haven't found anything in a stock shape or otherwise. I'm still looking for you.
