Nah I went with the CF, it's a pretty cheap upgrade for the weight drop. What's interesting is that at least on my preliminary 5-minute look at them, the outer CF wrapping isn't sealed to the edge metal of the canisters. I was assuming these would be just like the SS ones, but with CF replacing SS for the outer wall and sealed up. Clearly I don't understand something about the design, but I'm sure it works. Probably there's an inner lightweight metal liner that actually seals in the gasses.

Let me know what you think about the aesthetics/sound if you like it or not... I'm toying with the CF option or not. What color is your Z?

My Z is PG, and I'm not really much of an aesthetics person. I'll let you know how I like it anyways

Ok, no worries. I'm going to get a Mag. Black Z so I'm just curious what the CF vs. the SS would look like under it.
