Well I really hope so, but not 100% sure..

Decided not to do wings and doors.. Turns out there would only be a 2kg weight saving doing the wings in carbon, and the doors are in fact only a carbon door skin.. So the weight saving would be a mere 4kg's. Really there more of an aesthetic mod, and as im planning on vinyl wrapping them, pretty pointless..

So plan is to do carbon bonnet and boot, poly carbonate rear windows inc deleting the rear wiper, lightweight seats, no rears, remove misc sound and heat proofing, front and rear bumper bars and some other bits and bobs..

Problem is that I only have 3 weeks to save up and do it all lol..

The bonnet has a decent saving of around 7.5kg with the OSIR one. If you have a single skin one and a steel frame it doesn't give the same saving. :happy2: Although I'm sure you'll have scoured the internet for the lightest ones :signLOL:
