Flavor - I've got coilovers, so among other advantages, I can corner balance the car. Hell, if it gets too front end light I'll just drive it like a 911 - HA!
I've seen what's advertised on Ebay, but I was hoping someone might chime in about the fit/quality/weight of those hoods. GT-Racing does a fiberglass hood that's just under 20 pounds. I believe the stock hood is around 50.
I really do want to ditch the latch and everything that goes with it, including the cable. I've already swapped the rear mechanism, since my trunklid is fiberglass. With the front gone, I can also lose the door sill assembly in the cabin. The rest of the interior is already gone. I'll be AXing next year in F Prepared, and I'm eying NASA or SCCA time trials down the road. I'd like to get to 2500 pounds but stay just legal enough to maintain the Virginia inspection sticker.
