I am thinking off cuttting the skin from the bonnet and use bonnet pins do the same with the boot lid and remove the inside of the door and removing the dash, is this a good idea ?

Also if any one else has any weight saving tips please let me know. Already done lexan window remove most of the interior and fitted light weight wheels.

Thanks for the reply.

I use my car for drag racing so there arent that many rules.

All my body panels are steel at the moment as I find fibre glass items for a mk 3 polo coupe hard to come buy.

Yeah I would mind having a go making my own panels. If you could give me some pointers that would be great.
