HOLY SHIT, 3K? For real? Just remember, being cool is expensive

For the lightness gain per dollar, pass. If your project suddenly goes to an unlimited budget, sure. In the meantime, your hood will look great in body color - hell, even a straight coat of primer and it'll look badass3k is only for the carbon fiber, I didn't have the epoxy in there. . . All in it comes to $5853.96
Not sure I want to be cool that bad.

Almost ashamed to suggest this, but you could hydro-dip your 'glass hood to look like car-bone fee-bray and bury it in clear coat. It would look cool, but the poser component would bug the everlovin' shit outta' you
You be right on welding thin metal---brings the suck!!!
Have you heard of a product called solar flux type B? I used it when I welded my stainless exhaust, it seemed to help with the sugaring burn through of the tubes during welding. I mixed it in a little tray, applied with an acid brush, waited for it to dry, then welded the joint.
I ordered a little pouch from ebay, and I think it was 15 bucks or so. Might be worth looking into.

I dig it Kevin!Did a little side project today. I had bought the parts a few years ago and I'm getting close to where I'm going to wish I had it soon.
It's a new roller chair.........................That's right.............roller chair. I have one I use all the time that I bough off Summit. It doesn't go high enough and it's been on fire a few times.
ExWrench had a bitchen roller chair in his build thread with a tractor seat. Well, I had to have one too.
But most importantly, it's taller and more comfortable where I sit to weld.
Still need to paint it so it doesn't rust. The thing will roll right over extension cords as an added bonus.
I dig it Kevin!
That seat pan looks veddy, veddy familiar
Dang that's cutting it "close" for sure!!
So.......still working on it eh??
Frustratingly fun is what you mean
Nice that you got it figured out and I'm still trying to wrap my brain cell around the hose clamp marking issue, but at least you got it figured out and can move forward.
