Maybe it's just me, but I got the Seibon CF GTR style hood, and it feels significantly lighter than stock. Even now when I open it I feel like I can rip it completely off. LOL. (shrugs)

Speaking of ripping off the hood. I decided to do a quick "touchless" car wash at a gas station. Well I thought my hood was gonna rip off cause when the blowers hit my hood they went into the vents and started to cause it to wobble and bend a little. Scared the crap out of me... haha
