I'll ask around @ Fabulous Fords Forever...
Someone local was touting the very same hood for under $1000.00...

How much weight can really be saved by a carbon fiber hood?

I asked Sean and he said: "Stock hood weighs 34 lbs, ours weighs 16lbs."

Thanks for the info.

Hmmm. Not the best bang for buck then.

For only 18 lbs worth of weight savings it isn't worth it to me for cost. Now if your hood was destroyed and needed a new one fiberglass or carbon fiber would be the way to go. JMO

ox - thanks for posting those pics, they were just what I needed to see. After I get my seats I might have to go ahead and order the SHM CF hood.
