************************************************** * UPDATE I took a trip to the Industrial Metal Supply today -- COOL store! The sheets will be used to create the new trunk floor. Also where we will bead roll the G5.R logo. I got 2 just in case we mess up on the first. We are going to be recreating the front and rear bumper for weight savings. the rear bumper is 26 lbs. If my calculations are correct, the new rear bumper will be around 7 lbs. the front bumper is 14 lbs, and the new one should be around 6 lbs. 27 lbs of weight savings and.... The Optic Armor glass came in today Quote:
so if you stay with 3/16" glass, you will lose about 24 lbs with front and rear glass. |

Jim from Optic Armor emailed me and said the 3/16 front glass and 1/8 rear glass together saves 40 lbs over stock. Taking 1/16 off the rear window can't possibly remove 16 lbs so I'm thinking your scale isn't giving accurate info.

Man - I can't imagine how well this car is going to handle. Not only because of your stage 5 kit - but all the weight Nathan's removing.
