Origionals vary from 29 to 32 lbs. Older years are heavier.
Pretty damn good then.

Where's the CF hoods?

Yea I forgot about this thread but now I see it I sure could use a CF hood with a T2 scoop.

Best of all it would match the stock metallic black paint I have on the SE.

PM me when you're ready to sell.

What's everyones reasons for wanting these hoods, is it the look? The weight reduction? I probably would want one but now a days I think I would feel kinda well ricey with it (damn those honda's for playing out the carbon fiber)

Pretty sure he's moved on to other interests.. Last time I talked to Steve he was having a baby, moving to a new house and going back into business for himself (no, nothing to do with cars)

Somehow I suspect his priorities in life may have changed a bit and this might be on the back burner...
