70487, lightened rear hatch question
Posted by stv, Apr-10-04 08:31 AM
ok this has to be one of the/if not the heaviest exterior part of our car, the doors are fairly heavy to, but I give it to the hatch, I'm sure alot of it is b/c of the glass, but anyways, does anyone know of a way to lighten it drastically? Alex (eclipsedchef) and I were workin on his car at a local garage and they had some car that a stock fiberglass hood, thing was light as fuck, like 6lbs easily, it was unreal how light it was. I was thinking of some way or company that could either fiberglass/carbonfiber/or any other light material that would make these bitches alot lighter and help w/ everyone who has the fucked up struts that hold it up only to fall on your head. Any ideas? thanks

Where the hell have you been man? This site has been around forever. Some day I'll own all that shit, but not for a while. Make more power first. Be scary. Then the fiberglass be go buying. :P
