Nub here need help 92 cutlass ciera

so I'm pretty new hear and I have no idea where anything is and I don't have the slightest clue on where to start modding.

I have a 92 oldsmobile cutlass ciera
I love this car and making it look better and run better and get better mpg is what I like

I plan on removing the AC, compressor, and condensers from the car but I can't find squat on how to do said removal.need some help there lol

I'm removing the carpeting out of my trunk and I found that the trunk hood has a second layer of metal idk if I should remove that or not, idk if even can.

I've been trying to find these mods for my car, but all the sites I see I'm wary about but you guys can point me in the right direction of where to buy.
I'm looking for these parts for my car:

Carbon fiber hood
aluminum rims
racing seats
fuel cell(along with corresponding parts)
lighter coilovers and shocks
after market ECU that manages mpg better
better/lighter exhaust pipes

anything else I left out

PS - I am sure you already know this, but if you're a musician, search for Buzzbomb on YouTube.

moon caps make your own (see wiki page: Smooth wheel covers - EcoModder)

You can buy them for about $100 or make your own for about $15.

I doubt that many people on this forum know where to get racing stuff. Most people are modding their cars, but in the other direction. Someone else might post that up, but I would not count on many responses. Google is your friend.

well racing seats are lighter so if I put those in there I have comfortability and light weight
and the same with the racing side mirrors and fuel cell

also what if small holes were put in the pizza pans to cool the brakes yet keep the aerodynamics? wouldn't the entire "golf ball" effect take place?

the Wiki (link in my last post) has several How to pages, also look through the treads listed at the bottom, you will find several ways to attach and lots of pics.
