Dell, you seem a reasonable man, and by your response, I'll assume you don't already have titanium lub bolts. Seriously, how much of a weight savings could this be? I mean, is this something that we should be pursuing? Moreover, how much could they be? Wait ignore that question, I just paid 600 buckeroos for a carbon fiber horseshoe surround for my father's car (he saw mine, which was OEM, and decided he had to have it also).

I am a modding ***** myself but NEVER have thought of Ti bolts. The only place I need Ti is on my Cleveland Driver and Fairway metals!

wow, sweet deal


i always chuckle when these come up, especially for the price. you would seriously have to be running out of mods to do this one. i would think the money could be wisely spent elsewhere (sway bars, suspension, etc.).
