That was sarcasm. I knew what you meant.

Why hasn't somebody just removed the doors and gone for the Jeep Wrangler look?

This is on my list of things to do if/when I cage an FRS and use it for promotional purposes.

Really it was just me fishing for more pictures of your girl working on cars.

FYI, that isn't my gf. It's my friend's wife. LMAO

Anyone who owns FRS/BRZ willing to take off the door and weight em on the weight scale?

Revolution states about 20kg for the alone for each OEM door. I believe that is just the shell, doesn't include glass, wiring, speakers, etc.

But yeah, safety stuff, window stuff, speaker stuff etc. is what makes it so hefty. If you are going racecar, you could definitely get rid of door guts to cut weight, but if you're not, I think it's fine how it is.
I was going to say something about G35. Those are some LONG and HEAVY doors.

I get pissed off when my friend slams my door when he closes it. So I warn everyone that gets in my car to take it easy on the door and not slam it like an SUV or truck.

FYI wow.

Vorshlag has begun to weigh stuff but I don't think they've pulled doors yet. Their camber plates look rad.
