You can get black fiberglass. Check with ACP. You can pull a mold from your existing hood. Epoxy isnt exactly cheap, though.
If you want to make some lightweight accessories, use S-glass. Its about 90% the strength of carbon, ad WAY cheaper. If you make molds off your plug you can try changing the layup to get lighter glass parts.
What about lexan windows? Auto glass is incredibly heavy. If you ever saw "Two Lane Blacktop" the '56 Chevy that James Taylor is driving has lexan windows without a regulator mechanism, just a strap that you pull down on to raise the window in it's track.
