Guys, new problem related to weight

The Z's hood weighs only 16 pounds and Seibon claims that their DRY Carbon Fiber hoods weight about 12 pounds. That's a weight saving of 4 pounds. I don't think I'm that desperate for 4 pounds......Any ideas guys?? (i.e. correction on dry carbon fiber hood weight or lighter hoods) I and probably the rest of us are still trying to get that perfect weight distribution. So hard though...
