Default The ones out right now are about 23 lbs because it is a double layer carbon...the new vented one...

that is coming out will be made with a single layer carbon hood and will weigh approx. 13 lbs. They can actually make it as light as you want it, but anything below 10 lbs will not be safe for street and will require hood pins. The new vented one will also come clear coated so you don't have to spend another $150 on clearing coating the hood. You can also paint over it the same color as your car. I will post pics when it's available.
