Have you gutted the bumpers yet? Apparently that's a good weight-saver if you're game. Also, you might consider gutting the hood and trunk ribs, as well as killing the trunk hinges/latches and the hood hinges/latches. I'm just sayin...

And I am "just sayin" since my car has full-leather comfy seats, as well as A/C and cruise... and, yes, I refuse to give that **** up... dammit.

I have a shorty rear bumper from Simpson design, just no time to install it. I will gut the front also.. eventually.

Trunk: I am in the middle of fabricating a fiberglass lid. Still in the learning (learning to hate fiberglass) phase on that project.

Actually, lately I have had not time to work on the car at all. It just sits in the driveway doing this:
