Remove spare wheel, Tool kit, swap wheels for lighter ones, remove sound deadening, smaller fuel tank, remove lower U frame(crash protection), then it gets serious if you want to get any lighter :)
Or sell it and buy a Spec-C |

To the OP though, if you are considering light weight doors and bonnet/boot, you might want to speak to ABW Design. http://www.a-b-w.co.uk/images/subaru/blobeye/index.html |

Interior stuff, remove air con, smaller battery, empty boot of everything (inc spare wheel, tools, jack and carpet), lightweight wheels as mentioned.
