Was cleaning up the GT3 after my track event from last weekend, and pulled the trunk carpet, just because. I couple thin pieces of carpet and plastic, and that's it!
Still up on stands and cover on while I wait for my new studs (link) to arrive; previous ones (link) rusted.
Have a great Memorial Day Weekend!

That piece of rubber by front hood lock is(not the weather trim that surrounds border) removable too- 1.5 lb loss : ). Beautiful!!! Don't try to remove carpet inside next thing nothing inside- very liberating. Mike

Be careful Scott, that's how it starts ![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Two weeks ago, I removed the foam tray and tools cause, frankly, I'm not going to need that. Well, I got a strange sense of satisfaction from just removing these few pounds![ducking](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/icon107.gif)
Props for the clean underpinnings

What are you using to keep the wheels wheels so clean? I've tried Simple Green, to Goof Off and I can't get the rubber marks and tar off the painted part.

I am hesitant to suggest you try something stronger, but try to find maybe a 'concentrated' cleaner and give that a shot.
FWIW, this is only the 2nd time I've done this kind of cleaning on the GT3; I typically don't have lot of rubber bits in there; mostly minor road grime, dirt, and some rubber marks/scuffs.

Curious what the carpet weighs; can't recall. Other than that, you'd have to do a strip job like mooty or Mike I think to see real differences; doors, A/C, glass, etc.
There is a cool factor to consider though.![Big Grin](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Hmmm; free time today and tomorrow.....
