I did not put back the stock hydrolics because the stock hood weighs much more than the CF hood and when opening the CF hood with the hydrolics hooked up the hood would shoot up, so if your not paying attention you might get slapped by your own car.
Haha...

well the Carbon Fiber part is carbon fiber, and the outer parts where it's car's color is I think fiberglass. So not the whole hood is CF.
