      Whats the point of having a nice cf hood if your gonna paint it.

      If i were to get a cf hood specially at the price theyre at, id like to show off the cf look, not paint it, if you want something lighter then stock get a fiberglass hood or something worth putting paint on.

      Re: CF hood

      You will lose like 10 pounds with a cf hood, the aveo hood is extremely light for a metal hood compared to ther cars ive seen, my friend mazda 3's hood is like 3 times heavier.

      If your gonna get cf ffs leave it original, the ones on ebay have little scratches and some small bubbles on the clear finish, usualy it comes out when you wetsand/buff it. Its not as bad as it sounds.
