How much lighter are carbon bootlids than standard?
putting the race car on a serious crash diet over winter and was wondering if a carbon bootlid is much lighter than a standard classic tin boot?
I have no springs attached to the boot at the moment and it feels mega heavy when opening it and thats with a tiny light spoiler!
Wil be going to a lay on type set up with over centre pins so i can remove all the hinge mechanism from inside the boot.
Cheers Steve.
