Hmmm... let me see now, considering the bang for the buck factor, the car weighs say 1200kg (I'd bet on the 1300 mark) and you are shaving off 15kg... hmmm... oh my! a whole 1.25% reduction in weight! wow! yeah, and you are going to shift the center of gravity by how many cms? I don't know mate, spending 500 bucks for on a fibreglass bonnet for "performance reasons" sounds like total wank factor to me! I agree, there is a number of other reasons one would want a fibreglass bonnet (and one of the most enjoyable ones being bragging rights!) and it has its place. However calling carbon-fibre on a street car a wank factor... hmmm.... Now why would street car need 600RWHP?
If I was using going to composite body parts (not necessarily a bonnet)it would be carbon fibre not only because of the reduction in weight, but other mechanical properties.
