LOL, I had a Cf hood on the Talon and it flexed and shifted so much I ditched it.

The hood I will make will be no heavier nor thicker than the commercially available ones, the only difference is that I will not use any omniglas mat and I will add a post cure. Oh I am sure the materials I will use are far better grade as they are aero certified, but the aftermarket guys could achieve the same strength as I will with very little additional material costs, only labor and time. BUT it will not have the common failures of the commercially available POS's. 45$ in resin, 20$ in Rohacell and probably 100$ in Carbon.

And you are correct, a part built to these standards are not really commercially viable, but they are no different than what is created for a top end race cars and other exotic cars.
