ditch the boot lid and get a carbon fibre jobbie, or GRP at least to shed a lot of weight

i'll be covering them with fibreglass from the inside and then a small amount of filler on the outside. sand it down, get some paint mixed up to match spray, wetsand, lacquer, wetsand and buff up. job done

If youre going carbon, you'll have to go with a proper pre preg item at about £2500 for a bonnet. Only this will be lighter than your stock RA one.
Cheap carbon bonnts weigh a ton
