I read the sticky above but I wanna take some weight out of the car and keep it looking as stock as possible. my car is mostly a street car but I do take it to the track a good bit. I know things like airbag, leather seats, carpet. impact bumpers . Im just looking to see what some others opinons r that will drop some pounds but keep the factory look

get creative and then buy light weight parts.

Tubular k-member and a-arms will save a nice chunk off the front of the car.

i have everything aftermarket out back but not up front I should start looking a lil for the front end parts how bout interior wise stuff

I guess it just depends on far you want to go w/ your interior, can't take too much out while appearing stock. You can do lightweight carpet, rear seat delete and some ligher front seats.

The carpet is a good chunk just for some carpet and a little time. would say it is worth it.

ive read that people find lightweight carpet at local auto stores.. think its pretty generic stuff..

im in the same process of you right now.. well sorta, i intended to just rip out my dash to install my wideband & some gauges for this radio delete plate im making, but its turned into a larger project. im in the process of completely removing my air/heater core and all the duct work. removing your airbags will def shed some weight. i believe the passenger airbag unit alone is ~15 lbs.

I would search around for Ozite carpet check at your local parts store, or another idea is would be removeing the jute padding off your bottom off your OEM carpet

yeah most people use Ozite for their carpeting, it's cheap and the lightest. If you want i think speed inc makes a pre-formed light weight carpet you can buy if you want. I think my no carpet tin can looks rugged haha can't afford ozite carpet yet.
