I;m working with a Co. in Calif that has hood and decklid molds. Presently he sent me both in fiberglass ... I;m going to try them on both my cars and adjust the fit. Then he is going to adjust the molds and produce them in Carbon Fiber with Honeycomb backing. Total wieght 12 lbs as compared to 28lbs.
The down side is bowing I feel the only way to stop it is to add aluminum supports or a Honeycomb backing for strength.
