Very cool!

Are you going to keep the CF finish or paint all/part of it?

Also, packing anything special underneath?

Looks good, But as others have asked, Are you going to paint it, To me not being painted to match the car takes away from a nice ride.
Just my opinion.

I'm curious; is there a significant weight saving over the stock hood? I agree with Mr. Bill - I know the carbon fiber looks trick, but I think I would paint it.

It can only be the Motor City Mold (MCM) Hood, or the Carbon (Edited: Corvette) Creationz hood. I will guess.........MCM?

It's the ZR hood by Corvette Creations. Fiberglass made, with a top coat of carbon fiber.
