Some noise damping like dynamat or rubberized undercoating or expansion foam. Maybe a nice set of pedals and a shift ****. Maybe a couple of strut bars. Maybe some upgraded sway bars. Everything weighs more than stock. Hmm... This is a good topic. I think I'll start another thread.

You never really think of every thing as a complete unit. Its allways, Oh its just a few Lbs, but when you add up all the extras it coms out to be a whole lot of weight. THats why I snicker at the guys with carbon fiber hoods, and Huge extensive body kits. what ever wieght they saved with the Hood, they more then made up for it with the body kit.
