The CF "look" only became desirable because it's supposed to scream "light-weight". If it's the same weight, more or less, why wouldn't you put the money toward something that actually makes a real difference in performance. Or, as HEMI04 just said, paint your hood flat black or cover it with CF-look vinyl or something. Of course, "to each, his own", but I have to admit that I'm really at a loss on this particular purely-cosmetic trend...
