Default Carbon fiber hood

Hey , I have a question about carbon fiber hoods

Does CF have a certain temp that it cant be used in?
The reason i ask is i live in illinois and we do get decently cold winters (lows of about 20 degrees F) sumtimes a lil lower. I was wondering cuz i dont see alot of carbon fiber hoods ..... actually to be honest i havent seen any CF hoods !?!

Thanks

Since you are a noobie I'll be easy on you. ONE people do not LIVE on this forum ALL DAY, checking the Civic forum every second. So TWO you should chill out and someone will be around to answer your question.

But you should be fine in any environment with carbon fiber. They use it on planes that go into -100 degrees.
