As long as you would keep it looking closer to OEM, wouldn't be so difficult to get insurance. Sure, if you started to mess with safety features such as door side-impact beams it would start to get harder...

Folding the passenger mirror can be considered quite pointless over a removal, but I still think replacing both with more aerodynamical ones makes more sense. And you can have'em for cheap out of some wrecked sports motorcycle

Weight reduction- I'll probably aim to keep the interior pleasant- the car does mainly motorway work, so mass is not an issue- at least not as much as comfort!

Replacing some of the interior trim with lighter parts wouldn't necessarily decrease the comfort
