That's exactly what I was thinking, I'm really more interested in doing something cheaper, or that'll actually help the car's performance, I was told the stock hoods are around 80 pounds, definitely feels like it, and there's some carbon fiber hoods that weigh 8 pounds.
Nelson Racing did a VERY nice 1984 Camaro, I stole the idea of color matched hood blisters from them, it'd be cheaper and really worth it in the long run, considering some carbon fiber hoods are under 10 pounds, and an OEM for a third gen is only $799.
