OK, so I was telling one of my co-workers about how I wanted to get a CF Hood for the weight reduction benefits, not for the look. He suggested that I check into getting a fiberglass hood, instead, since they are much cheaper. So my questions are: Do they even make these for our cars? What's the difference between carbon fiber and fiberglass? Any input would be appreciated.

if he's talking about the FRP hoods.. there reallyy freaking great and believe there very light, the CF is like 13lbs. compared to stock like 30 somehting.. so either way it iwll be lighter.. if u get fiber make sure its one of those top layer overlaps.. i forgot who makes it but its where the top layer on the hood overlaps instead of the bottom sticking out like most.. so much better and helps a lot
