Changing out stock parts for fiberglass parts will save a lot of weight. I have 2" wider CCC fenders and they are much lighter than stock steel. I also purchased a CCC W decklid, and its is featherweight compared with stock. I'll probably get a CCC hood as well. Those changes will probably remove 75 lbs from the car.
