Ebay normally has them,

be warned the hatch glass is the heavy part, fenders lose 1-2 lbs total and doors are a ton of money and still lose only some weight.

Most that stuff is all a bad idea for shows only.

that is true. the hatch wont change much and its alot of work to lose 3-5lbs

the fenders would be a good idea

but the doors i wouldnt go with. i'd rather have some form of safety and sacrifice a weight loss that wouldnt effect me. just dont eat a cheeseburger race days

i had the hatch on my last crx and if i remember right it saves more than 5lbs. I used the CF hatch with the glass only for the large part of it and then smaller glass was replaced with plexie. When i opened the hatch with the blown shocks it would go up all on its own.

Get a carbon fiber hatch, remove glass and replace with lexan. That should knock off some weight.
