i wouldnt assume that a carbon bonnet is an y lighter than steel one, to prevent the bonnets from cracking, warping or losing there shape they are heavily laye up with fibre glass normally for strength, they only have a single layer of carbon on the outside to look pretty.

quote the weight of your steel bonnet which will be about 10-15kg
