most common lightweight parts are pulleys but used to lower inertia rather than weight saving, change front seats to carbon buckets will save a quite bit, lighter wheels/calipers and two piece discs will help but again usually used to improve handling, removing aircon is common as it also helps handling as the compressor is on the front of the engine and is very heavy, bonnet/boot already ally, some change to a small battery but the blob is heavy as it's much stiffer than the classic but this makes it much safer in a crash encap 4 star i think.
