Message Properly-made CF fenders would weigh less. Aluminum fenders would also probably weigh less and would likely be cheaper than CF but the weight savings probably wouldn't be as much.

You do know that the fenders on the Z06 are CF for just this reason, right? And why more and more car manufacturers are making the front hood and fenders out of aluminum to try to save weight?
