so i have been doing some research on panels and weights and construction materials.
Seibon panels are fiberglass skeleton(inside structure) and CF skin. and as advertised, offer a 50% weight savings.
 i *think* i am correct in a CF hood/ bonnet should be 60 to 70% lighter than steel ? if 100% CF.....
for the more experienced users and fabricators here, i d welcome your experience on the numbers.
anyways, i am thinking if i made a part  100% CF and priced following the big makers prices i should do well. keep in mind mine would be a 100% CF part.for maximum performance and lightness, all custom made for the customer by me.
 i think it is a good selling point, but is that going to be enough?
there is much to learn grasshopper.....i ll keep you posted on what i learn.
