I meantioned before I didn't...Mostly due to the fact that I've only had the car for a few months now. Eventually it will be a possibility but not yet. So my intention is to optimize what I have.

Question: I read somewhere that someone modified their hood to make it lighter. Anyone have a DIY or more information/pics they could share I am really interested in this?

BTW... I decided to go with Fast Intensions after hearing the FI cat back plus LTH combo...simply put...HAAAAMAZING!

Question2: I'm researching wheels. For obvious reasons Forgestar F14's are popular but I am not sure I like them (although I recently saw a set with the dark bronze finish that actually looked good). Do you all know of any wheel under $3k that comes close to 23 lbs and is a 19x11?
