Sounds reasonable if they do quality work. Remember the are painting both sides to do it right so it's like painting 2 hoods. They would have to prime and block the hood as most if not all of the aftermaket hoods are'nt very straight and usaully have pinholes here and there.Quality Materials alone will be $200+

Not really a appearance mod to me. I saved 21# by going to the carbon hood. That much weight off the car that high was a difference I could actually feel. I hammer the **** out of this car and know it very well.

I don't really care about weight savings, between the 2.73's and the A4, the car is slow as **** anyway...21lbs is the least of my worries, haha.

Is your hood a VIS or Carbon creations? still a little heavy for a CF hood. Those hoods have a fiber glass frame just laminated with CF. But any weight reduction is good on our heavy cars. I had a DGmotorsports CF hood and it was much lighter than my friends VIS cf hood. maybe by 10-15# lighter. I could lift it with my pinky. lol
