I busted an oil pan at oem ride height so I run a skidplate. It is all scrapped up and it is a great jack point.

I've never scrapped my front bumper tho.

Tank brace connects rear shock towers.

I really suck with fiberglass so I doubt I could pull of carbon. Aluminum is light enough while not letting the battery flop about.

I would be happy to hit z06 weights.

car weighed 3,150 bone stock, weighed 3,080 in this pic and should now be somewhere around 3,000 maybe less, when I'm done. Short of lexan windows and taking a hole-saw to the car, is it even achievable to get a Goat down to 3,0xx pounds, Mike?

What are you monster trucking over to do that? I can see taking out an armadillo or something and causing an issue but not around here...
