Hoods
Is a Carbon Fiber hood worth it since the stock hood is aluminum?

I love my carbon Fiber hood. It saves a few pounds, but a few pounds are a few pounds IMHO. Here are some pics of mine. I LOVE IT!

What about CF Trunk Lids? Do they save any noticeable pounds?

I would just take the hood off.

Also, removing the interior and glass can save some weight.

The spare tire is something that is not needed.
