Again most will hurt instead of help. The designs aren't there.

I hate CF, and by the time I buy a CF and paint it, big money on a hood that does not vent and no fitment issues with OEM hood... and most they are too flashy and heavier, this is simple and clean, one could even paint the mesh body color to blend it. To each their own! Not to mention cost effective. Its in my to do list! I guess rust was the wrong terminology, it will build corrosion here in PA if your not careful, bt true it will not rust like steel.

Aluminum will corrode and form an aluminum oxide which prevents further corrosion, you will be fine.
