Default Any practical ways for reducing weight out yet?

Anyone got any weight saving tips, other than spare tire and tools?

Try to keep it practical. I want to take it down another 50 pounds.. but I don't know where to start. Any suggestions?

Oh btw I am speaking directly of things you can remove from the car. Not replacement parts such as a Carbon Fiber hood.

i noticed honda put a lot of sound deadning crap on the car you can remove some of it you could get a smaller battery too buddy club and oddesy make some nice ones but really unless your trying to build a race car theres not much of a point in trying to shave off wheight you could go so far as to remove the a/c system but thats some thing you would really want to do with summer comeing up
