CF hatch is 15 pounds lighter. And it's... carbon fiber, so yes, that looks different than painted?

Sold seibon for a few years ,it's only mid quality, had customer compalaints of yellowing of clearcoat as clear coat was not uv inhibited. Lot of the hoods had warps so even with body shop fitment, fit was still not very good. Not trying to trash the product, but don't expect O.E.M. fit.
