IMO I would do more performance stuff like plan on turbo or save for a swap......CF looks great but if you have nothing to back it up its ghey.

Weight reduction is good......by why are you selling your stock trunk? Are you just going to get the CF one anyways? It will be a big difference, here you go:

Hold the stock trunk and step on the weight scale, then weigh yourself with the cf trunk and subtract= weight of stock trunk.

Sounds like a good idea I will have to try that when I get a chance. The reason Im selling my stock trunk is because Its not off the car I drive now. Its off another accord I have that has been wrecked. Only reason Im asking such a silly question is because Im always at work like now and never have time to do anything like that. Thanks though I prob wont get a CF trunk untill I get the hood. But your right I would rather have a swap or turbo anyday than both of them.

I would think the trunk would be too big for a household scale.....but you could always go to a trucking weigh in station and do it before and after.

[] scale [-----------] trunk
