Default Clean, durable, CF Hoods

Which CF hood would you guys suggest? I prefer the OEM styled without ANY flares.

Thanks in advanced,
Jeff

I'd like to ask a "flame-me-I'm-a-newbie"-type question--How much of weight savings are these CF hoods, anyway? The stock's already very light (~20lbs?). I can't imagine the CF hood to be much lighter. To save 5-10lbs, is $300+ a justified expense? Or are most of these people with CF hoods just going for looks?

Just curious.

I'm going for the looks. The Sebring Silver color is way too plain IMO.

Both CF and Stock hoods weight about the same. So there is no weight difference. People either go for the looks or and to keep the engine cooler (for those who buy the vented hoods).
