Uncle scotty.. I know that CF hoods are a waste of money from a weight perspective, but also the fenders and door skins?

Just wondering how much though..

The ultimate goal for the car to have a daily driver that is dirt road and city street friendly, provides great handling on the curvy backroads and is fun to drive; I don't at all mind extra noise or a stiff suspension. Something like the effect of an BMW M3; except with AWD.. Nice enough for passengers who could give two sh**s less about 0-60 times and cornering G's, but fun and extremely capable when the occasion arises; including track time. Eventually I will be going for some form of an STi drivetrain swap. Whether it's a JDM 2.0l or USDM I havn't decided yet as that is down the road.

Basically I want the performance modifications to be more or less transparent to a passenger (excepting NVH levels) Not looking for a CF adorned I'm a street racer give me a ticket look. I will put a wing on it though *shrug* Anyone know if the rally wing from the 2001 impreza rally car is sold anywhere?
