Weight of H3 OEM hood?

[GreatDaneHummer]

I know this might be an odd question to ask but anyone know the exact weight of an H3 OEM hood? Or able to get the weight? Unfortunately my OEM hood is now scrap metal.

Could you maybe balance your damaged one on a bathroom scale? I would also be interested because it feels pretty heavy. A fiberglass/cf piece would be a great way to get rid of weight.

No the damaged one is dead and gone. I am going to borrow one of my buddies to get a correct weight and to mold his to start with. He gets a new free hood and I get a new mold to make more. Win win.

Thanks and keep us posted!

Gonna make one vented with cowl? Id love to have one

It will be OEM style but without the fake vents. Instead it will have 20 smaller holes drilled by CNC in a pattern right between the engine and the radiator as to not have rain fall on the top of the engine.

Anyone ever find out that weight?

But won't the fan just blow water around that does come thru?

On the front of the engine yes but the top is what I am more worried about. The seals on the coil packs are not great.
