    I want to reduce the weight of my F 355.

    Does anybody can tell my the weight of the
    OEM bumpers rear and front ?

    What's the weight of challenge bumpers rear
    and front ?
    I think those were produced in carbon and lighter plastic .
    Which weight can be saved by using challenge bumpers
    rear and front ?

    Who can help me ?

    Thank You

    Andi

    My first rule of weight reduction is that nothing weighs less than anything.

    If you are serious about weight loss, gut the car of every non essential part. (passenger seat, radio, ac, power windows, carpets, etc..)
    You will save hundreds of pounds for free.

    F355 Challenge bumper covers were Kevlar, not carbon, though some carbon ones managed to get installed... ;)
