So the rear bumper delete you did much earlier is it the same style/ design as in the 'tooners thread? Massive weight loss FTW very nicely done!

This is the first time I've really paged through your build thread. Your car is flipping amazing!

I would have to look back at the numbers. I think I cut out 60lbs, then after rebuilding a total loss of 43lbs sounds right. I cut the "frame" back to the k member mount and all the inner fender and strut mounts. I did that to make room for everything and to pull the front end off for fixing.
Looks good.

Mark, I was browsing through some weight loss threads and found a guy that did this. The plate is made of corrugated plastic and covered with suede, so it weighs next to nothing, but still looks nice and you won't be cutting yourself on a hacked up door. He has fixed lexan window as well though, not sure what your plan was in the window department.

^I like that a lot.
I like the bit of rope/string whatever for the door, wanted to do that since I saw it in the old GT3 porsche.

those doors look clean and functional, all you need imo, maybe if you wanted some hand crank windows
