I do agree that fiberglass would be the easiest to work with, but after having a glass body kit you cant blame for being a little scared to go back to it. Also, I am a Master degree welder (pipe and structural) and I don't want to mess with a metal hood. Probably because there is a big difference between a structural welder in a body shop welder. And lastly, Yes Carbon Fiber is VERY difficult to work with and make. I just thought it would be a nice piece to have. I contacted VIS to see if they would do a limited production for Crossfire, We will see what they say.
