Chris had them do it to his car last year when they installed his roll cage. ill try to get him to post a picture.
I was looking at doing that also

Not sure but Chris's car with him in it was just under 3,000 no roll bar and he weighs 160, so like 2825. If you have the money to buy some carbon fiber, doors, hatch, I think you can shave off another 100 lbs.
