this is very plausible because CF hoods on WRXs are known to be heavier than stock because the stock is made of entirely aluminum. The stock hoods on WRXs are very light.

riiiiiiiiiiiiight... anyways, bottom line, carbon hoods weigh more than aluminum because people buy shite carbon hoods. Not the stuff in racecars, the stuff they use to make things look all fancy and 'race-esque.' A real carbon race hood can be lifted and waved over your head with one hand.

Lazy ass?? ... Uumm Not Really.

First off, this was not a cheap ass wet carbon process, it's all real dry carbon fiber. It was done by a company called Uchida, this company makes dry carbon kits for Super GT and Moto GP race teams. This is Uchida-san's daily driver, the founder of the company. It was finished 2 years ago, and it still shines like it just came out of the oven because it's sprayed with a special protective coating by System Partner called Nano-Shine. Now, the guy owns a carbon-fiber company, that's why the car came out so good and it's actually dry carbon, instead of some gay raceonusa.com crap. It was modeled after a Burn Up kit for the NSX, with carbon kevlar lip and canards. It has a one-off titanium exhaust that was welded by a Super GT race team specifically for this car. So, to everyone that thinks that this is some ricer carbon "style" kit, it's NOT, it's all real. Oh yeah BTW, this car was just feautured in Turbo magazine, but I knew about this car a while ago, about time it got featured in magazine over here.

yea bascially things been a daily driver for 2 years and it still looks like brand new carbon fiber. thats what happens when you have the parts to make bodyparts out of dry carbon at your disposal though lucky guy
