Saw the Car exhibit in MOA today in the open car park beside iMax.
Saw some nice setups and some car hoods made of carbon fiber.

Very interested on the hoods made of the carbon fiber.

Aside from aesthetics may other advantage ba?

Where dito sa Pinas gumagawa noon?

Thanks

Grade A Carbon Fiber hood are very expensive used by those car nut enthusiast and a street car racer cause they are very light material that some Cabon Fiber hood are less than 10lbs. Thats about almost 60 to 70 percent less weight from the original hood but it cost you several thousands of pesos.

Best to check out with a car club that specializes in your car's make/model. There might be someone offering a group deal or similar. Or someone selling his existing CF hood.
