You do realize that carbon fiber can be made stronger than steel and definitely stronger than plastic.

Very true, but isn't the problem with carbon fibre that it can't flex very much if at all? I think his point was that if it hits something then it would shatter right away since it doesn't flex. That's why you always see carbon fibre hoods on cars that have been in accidents all broken and shattered. That was my understanding anyway...school me if I'm wrong.

Yeah I was going to say that carbon fiber does not allow any sort of impact. It shatters way too easily and it costs too much. Its one thing if you feel the need to put a carbon fiber hood on your honda to prove its mad horsepower but under a truck?? really?
For my needs the plastic one works fine.
