Body kits weigh like nothing, lol. If you get a kit, get something that looks good. Not that invader ninja boosheet.

Depends on the kit. The old Wings West fiberglass RS kit for CRX was had som weight to it, the door caps were pretty solid, and it adds up. For most kits (especially the knockoffs) they're usually extremely light, it's when people started adding bondo to the mix, that the weight adds up.
