The roof will be off in a couple of weeks, so I'll let you guys know on that as well.
Also of note, I stripped out all of the unnecessary brackets and other sheet metal from the inside of the chassis, and there isn't much to be gained there in weight loss. I took 8 lbs 9 oz out. Spare tire well seems pretty beefy, so maybe that will be a good chunk out once it gets chopped.
Does anyone have an accurate weight on the rear subframe?

Thanks so much. I just ordered the Seibon Dry Carbon Fiber doors. Looks like they weight 10lbs each. So I should be able to save ~80lbs!!!
