Does it really lighten the weight so the car can be a little faster, or it's mainly for the look as well?
I am thinking to get one, but struggling on which package should I get...
Thanks!

PURELY DECORATIVE!
The “weight loss” is about the difference between having (1) Egg McMuffin and (2) Egg McMuffins and a Hash Brown for breakfast! Slight exaggeration but I sincerely doubt that any weight loss in a 4,000 pound car due to spending the extra $,$$$ on Carbon Fiber could be clocked in a race. You are already buying a car that delivers over 450 hp — why spend the money UNLESS you really love the Carbon Fiber look (purely personal choice).
Your $$$, your choice.

Actually they are available from Latvia for under $400. If you are I the US though you also need to get Vag Can Pro to reprogram the light controller. I just finished this on my S5.
