How to make a car lighter??
what are some of your ideas? i dont want to be the typical person and take my seats out. the key is i want ot to be non noticeable. i want to sleeper look. so far ive taken out my wiper motors but customized the pieces that hold the wipers. so it looks like i just took the wipers themselves off. bumper supports are gone. theres really nothing else i can do without making it obvious. i was thinking about cutting my rear door frames. safety wont be an issue cause i dont ever have anyone back there. any other ideas?

doubt u have power steering or a/c. if u do kiss thsoe good bye, its hard to do stuff w/ out being noticable.u can take out speakers and head unit, if u don't care about being noticable, rip out everything, seats, carpet, interior plastic, do a custom clutster and srcrew that dashboard. that's what i did on one of my earlier rex's, that was a light ass bitch.

i want to be able to make people race me. as soon as they see that, they arent gonna want to run. it looks scary as shit when you pull up next to a gutted out car

oh yea good luck with no bumper supports..thats about the dumbest thing you can remove..the weight you save is minimal....and the support of the bumper beam means a lot when you get into an accident... just my .02

if you have a stock hook, you could always cut out the ribbing to that, same for the trunk
