Is there a GT4 CF hood on the market? Is there any type of vented CF hood available? Are there any hoods that are just carbon fiber for our cars that only weigh a few pounds or do they strictly come as just a fiberglass hood with a CF overlay?

But are those hoods purely CF? Or is it just laid over fiberglass.

From what I've read and seen, I'm pretty sure all the CF hoods available are fiberglass with a CF overlay.

Yes, the carbon fiber is typically for aesthetic reasons. And here is the link to the C-One style carbon fiber hood group buy, which you can still join: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=12725

this kid i know has a 93 corolla with a CF hood and it seriously weighs like 8 lbs and only has fiberglass brace. I have a friend with an s10 that has a CF hood and it has the CF overlay over fiberglass and weighs damn near 50 lbs. So I'm not sure how many hoods are sold with just CF and if any are available for Celicas...

No true cf hoods are available for the celica that I know of.
