the only things that arent CF are the rear quarters/front/rear bumpers/and sideskirts...the oem doors weighed approx. 90lbs/door..new ones weight only 16lbs...yes the safty of the car has gone down but the vehicle is driven on rare occasions..hasent been out in about 1month now...plans for the rear quarters are possible but im not sure yet...id like to see what some black paint can do for me...was thinking about fading the black paint from the front bumper onto the CF fenders...any imput on this would be great..trying to make it "flow"

to be honest...the fenders were about the same...maybe a pound or 2 lighter..the hood as well...i believe most of the stock body panels on the g's are aluminum including the hood

you can purchase a cf bumper/skirts/rear bumper and overlay the pillars, roof, and quarter panel!

The black paint job with a fade to carbon fibre is a great idea ! You should do it. A clublexus member had his GS with a paint fade to cabon fibre and it looks great.
