Thanks! I'm almost done with the easy to do weight reduction. Today was my first real day of aero mods with the antenna delete and the start to shaving the badges and whatnot. I'll also be shaving the rear door handles, side marker lights and mid door trim soon.
I really don't think these things will have a measurable impact before and after but it will help overall when combined with the many other little mods.
I'm also going to design a plate to cover the location where the mirrors bolt to the doors. I'll probably use thick plastic, contour it, then apply a textured paint. Not quite sure how I'll attach it yet because I want it to be smooth (no bolts sticking out or showing) and want it to be quickly reversible (so no gluing it on or using caulking..). Perhaps I'll countersink bolts into the plastic then filling in the bolt head area with bondo or something before bolting it to the door.
