Weight Loss for Body Parts? Options

[john rogers]

I could not find the differences in weights, but I know someone must have a pretty close idea for these:

- Fiberglass doors, empty vs Two steel doors (73) with window mechanisms?

- Fiberglass hood, with headlight covering vs steel hood and two popup head light assemblies?

- Fiberglass trunk lid with pins vs steel trunk lid with hinges?

I already know the cost of the parts but I am curious how much weight I'd loose doing the above swaps? Thanks for the help.

As Kellzey noted:
1. Rubber pad behind backpad in interior...Gone
2. Back pad removal....Gone used some light Mexican carpet instead
3. Engine side firewall....Gone
4. Tar on floors....Gone, just POR-15
5. Carpeting....Stock carpet and pads gone use light Mexican carpet instead
6. Fiberglass bumpers vs stell and rubber and tits....Fiberglass front and rear
7. fiberglass vs. steel rockers....Fiberglass rockers
8. Fiberglass vs. steel valences....No rear valence

I also pulled the stock heater box, stock windshield wiper assy(use a power boat wiper from West marine), passenger seat removed, aluminum race seat.


Things that can add

Chassis stiffening kit plus weight off all the welds (it adds up).... Needed it for racing, plus cage
Steel flares will adda few pounds on each quarter....Use rivet on fiberglass flares
Heavier rotors and calipers....Stock rotors, BMW calipers
Wider wheels and tires....Lightest 7 inch alloy wheels made and Goodyear 9x23x15 slicks
