We're all lighter without our clothes, loose them & go faster

get carbon kevlar teeth installed, need those to chew steak, so just lighten them up!

 

[abunai888]

lighter rear lca's and front

you can open holes on your rear rta like ss works did in their crx

fuel tank can be switched to a full race smaller aluminum tank.

carbon/plastic doors but it's dangerous for daily driven cars...

carbon or aluminum roof

carbon rear wing spoon duckbill is hella light too!

you can remove head lights and keep only the covers with custom plastic mounts

you can cut rear spare tyre boot
