I have seen the GT Racing site before and often wondered how much weight could be saved replacing the bumpers, bonnet, boot lid, clam shell, doors and fenders. I would not bother with the rear quarters, even though GT Racing sells them, as it looks like a hell of a job.
I am now seriously considering replacing some panels, since I had a small accident recently that scuffed up my bumper. It needs to be painted, so while I'm buying paint and pulling a bumper off, why not do a bonnet and fenders while I'm there, and possibly doors, and my boot lid does have a couple of hail dents in it...
I wouldn't go CF, fibreglass would be good enough and less expensive.
Would I get a reasonable weight reduction or is it a waste of money?
