I sell c/f hoods and for an example here is weights on an Integra.A stock Integra hood weighs about 30lbs a c/f hood with a fiberglass under weighs about 25lbs and an ultra light c/f hood weighs about 15 lbs. so at the most on an Integra you get a 50% weight savings which equals about 15 lbs. Now Ken has a point the NSX aluminum piece vs a c/f one will probably be 1/2 of that say 7lbs. (don't eat that Micky D's value meal and save that!)Also one time I forgot to put my hood pins back in after an event @ Gingerman, and on the way home on the highway I had the latch fail @ 70mph and the c/f hood came up and crashed onto my windshield and roof!!! (scared the hell outa me) The hood stayed in tact, and shattered thus actually saving my windshield and sunroof (Integra GSR) It was the heavier show hood though with the fiberglass underlayment. NOT true layered c/f which would not have shattered as easy.
