The 350Z has an aluminum hood too, supposedly around 23lbs. I'd love to know what rates they're using on the hood dampers. Shouldn't be too hard to do a plastic analysis and see if the aluminum will warp from their use.

Assuming the 370Z hood is about the same weight, though, it shouldn't be too big of an issue.
