That is what I thought, If weight saving was required more than anything else, I am sure removing the rear winder mechanisms (making them fixed) off the rear windows would save more weight than changing the skins. but if you are binning the winder mechs as well ...... I shut my mouth.

It does look good, but car park dings/scratches are bad enough on a painted surface, let alone CF ....... Or am I being too sensible ?

ABW 18 December 2008 06:34 PM

No weight saving really as we wanted to keep all the side impact bars in . Purely for show :D . Carbon skin is only marginally lighter than the steel skin .
Nate stop being sensible :lol1:
