Replaced Stock Hood with C/F (30 pounds)

Is the stock hood 30lbs? or does the c/f save 30lbs?

Brace under dash = 5lbs

What is this brace for? Is it for collision safety purposes?

LOW-PROFILE weight tips:

on the B13 there is a heavy metal plate that sits above the door locking mechanism. It is inside the doors metal panel. Unbolt it and pull it out.
Maybe 1 or 2 pounds.

Lose all four TOW HOOKS.

Lose as many metal brackets that hold wires in place as you can and use plastic zip ties to keep them in place.

Look in the engine bay: Pull out all the fuses you dont need. e.i. A/C , Power steering. Then after you do that SAW off the extra plastic that was there to hold the fuse there in the first place.

Lose half your bumper. Like in my sig.

Keep your STOCK brakes!!!!
You will not need no damn NX brakes once you weigh 1900 lbs.

Take out your passenger side fan
once you take out the a/c.

Lose the passenger side mirror.
KEEP THE 80s alive!!!!

Lose that damn radio!!
Enjoy the hits from your valvetrain and your exhaust.

Im giving away too much. I gotta go!!!!

for my nx, I was thinking about a "del-sol" style rear deck, or mr2 style. Flat, with a near vertical small window(read: plexi-glass) just behind the front seats. I bet there's 50lbs. in that conversion easy. Anyone know where to buy huge sheets of that special plexi-glass they make for cars that's super scratch resistant?
