Should I add more CF?
I never start a poll before and always want to try.
Question is should I add more CF to my car.
I already have side skirt, rear skirt and wing in CF.
I'm thinking of adding hood and/or trunk CF.
Here are pixs of current vertion.

and a quick Photoshop of what it may look like.
(actually I want vented CF hood but its too hard to Photoshop that.)
Thanks everyone.

I would say neither gain or loss.
I want to drop too, but my car is moving with me in the future to the place that, literally, 4x4 is the best.
That place is Bangkok, Thailand. My home town.

If there is not an advantage to putting it on, why spend the money? Paint your hood black or flat black if that's the look you want, then you don't have to worry about rock chips on your expensive hood. I don't know about the trunk weight but the hood is only 15 freakin' pounds, now that's hard to beat.

I don't think any CF hood in the market today is significantly lighter than OEM's aluminum hood.
I'm studying about DIY vacuum CF. Seem hard but achievable.
I might start with smaller piece like interior part first. Maybe my Lotek gauge pod.
So all end up, everything is just for look LOL

can you tell me where you got your CF parts? especially that rear lip thing?
i used to have a CF hood on my old silver protege5, i matched it with some CF eye lids and a CF front lip.. the combo goes well with silver. so my poll would be if you want to complete the look do a CF hood + CF eyelids... it will tie things together.
