Post any tips for weight savings that you have performed. What you did and how much you lost. Carbon Fiber Hood, Lightweight wheels or whatever.

You can weigh things easy by holding them and standing on a home scale and subtracting your initial weight from your new weight, the difference in weight is your parts weight

Here is an example of how to post your data:

--

Vehicle: Year / Model / Trim
Mod: The part
OEM Weight: Weight of old part
NEW Weight: New Weight

Difference of _ lbs.
