I have so many questions on this topic alone! For example, are carbon fiber parts worth it? Will getting the front splitter, sides, and rear fascia in carbon fiber reduce weight significantly, or is it mostly about looks? To me, it seems like the most significant weight shaving can be done by replacing the hood with a carbon fiber, but even then, how much weight are we really talking about and, most importantly, is it really worth the cost? For someone like me, of course. I'm sure there's plenty of people on both sides of the issue.
