Getty rear rsa style wing showed up today. My guess is finished glass wing and OEM deck lid will be about same weight as stock mechanical wing. Lighter than full rsa as no rubber part. Fabbing reinforced seat mounts. Then paint.

We didn't weigh it all out - we did take a weight of car before it started strip down and will when its done.
The CAD program said about 50lbs based on materials selected and sizing.

My target weight is 2750 ready to go. We should be close to that with the cage added, but we are taking more weight off (flywheel, exhaust, the interior strip, sunroof delete, etc).

What a great build. Spent morning tea and lunch at work yesterday and all last night reading this from start to finish! So much inspiration. Keep up the good work!
