was talking to Bossfox about this earlier, while you can strip out all the interior, and cut out panels in the rear, the front has alot of mass ignoring the engine and theres not much you can do about it without alot of £££

Exactly its all either structural or an engine etc might attempt to thin the bonnet and bumper out etc buy that's all I can see really!

CF or FG Body panels

Battery relocation and removing the aircon seem to be the only real way of removing weight from the front.

Lightweight bonnet could be an option. Perspex??

On the Alfa V6's they tend to swap out the Intake plenum (it then has 6 intake tubes coming away to each respective cylinder head intake port) with Carbon Fibre ones, more for improving intake flow rather then weight.

I'll look into this weight saving in the engine bay! I might try and move washer fluid to the back of car and maybe even brake fluid if I'm brave!
