No offence meant as I said I was old fashioned. If I were building a
race car I would paint the carbon fiber parts to match the car. How much
of a weight savings do you get with a carbon fiber hood over a
fiberglass one?

Doc,I don't equate carbon fiber with ricers. I see it on Lots of race cars. Yes I am doing it mainly for the weight savings. also I don't have to paint those parts so it also will save time.Davis
