Edited for correctness...


I wouldnt say it would be lighter than a carbon fibre product.
This is what RTperformance has advertised concerning the difference in weights..another company selling the carbon fibre bonnet..(btw im not marketing for them, just using their "advertised" stats for credibility)

OEM bonnet - 11.5kg
RTP carbon bonnet - 9.5

Honestly the weight savings that are made are either for the extreme, or maybe for those who dont care and really just want that carbon fibre look...
