Thanks guys... I would like to save as much weight as possible. Next step is lightweight battery and CF hood but that can be later on.. For now i just nee to take sunroof out and put in filler so i can get it painted...

I just bought a CF sunroof plug for my 95 Prelude, and the OEM sunroof assembly was 35lbs plus about 10lbs for all the trim peices and such, so yours is probably a bit less than that. The CF plate is like 1lb
