why would you need a CF hood? waste of money and effort
Because they look good and are lighter.
Hey, and moogly, have you tried touch up paint? It doesn't look the best, but if you really take your time it can come out ok.

BTW: if you get a carbon fiber hood, make sure it has a metal latch. I know a guy at work who had a carbon fiber hood that had a plastic latch and it came up on the highway, flew off, and dented the top of his car.

+1 on the carbon fiber, in the mean time buff and touch up.
