Now Seibon has three carbon fiber hoods for the Fiesta ST.

They have an OE-Style (no vents)

The TM-Style.



And now the new RS-Style.

Are those vents actually functional? What's the weight on those hoods?

Although I do like the TM-Style.
The RS-Style is what I always wanted.

Now I need to go take more photos of the car again.
That means I need to wash it again too.
This is an endless cycle.

Yes, the vents ARE functional on both hoods, bonnets for you UK folk.

They are both approximately 14 pounds less than the OE STEEL hood.

Wait a minute... you don't have a carbon fiber hatch door do you? [wink]

RS-style looks to be more effective.

Decisions, decisions.

Yes, I DO.

Ummm, where did you find that? What is the process for fitting glass and other components? Weight savings? Sorry for all the questions but the only reason I wouldn't get a hood is because I haven't been able to find a matching hatch piece. Do tell. lol

The hatch is also from Seibon.

It is not worth taking the old glass out in my opinion, so I just had a new one installed.

You save about 14 pounds on this as well.
