RE: so many questions
yeah but not all that much.....unless you leave only the shell, trans, and motor
the bumpers dont weight but a bit less then 10lbs anyways, and if the hood and trunk are made to be removed for racing then there will be more drag then its worth

i myself am not a huge fan of weight reduction......unless you have an all drag car, there isnt much of a reason to stip down your daily driver
