Generally speaking - how much CF ?
the hood, the truck, doors..
what else I should make CF? can u literally make the whole car CF, minus the engine.. etc, or can u?
or perhaps what do YOU have CF? that would give me an idea of how much I should do..

ive seen, at Importfest in Toronto a WHOLE car carbon fiber. ALL interior, floor, dash, body carbon fiber looking rims, and under the hood a lot of carbon fiber covers. Im sure most was that carbon sheeting but it looked like the real stuff. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ though

Unless you have some actual data to back that up, I call :bs: on that statement.

-trunk/hatch is pointless because about 90% of the weight is in the window
-hood is the only one that gives the car that "clean" look
-you can TECHNICALLY have the car body molded with carbon fiber and literally have every piece of the body made into carbon fiber... but that would ruin the cars durability/rigidity :shrug: .. and just imagine how much a fender bender would cost
all in all it's not worth it... just my .02
