Fiberglass Doors
Now that my car is getting a full cage I am looking into replacing stock doors w/ fiberglass
doors to save weight. I haven't seen any available from any vendor and the carbon fiber doors
I've seen available are very expensive. A racer here in FL had some made for his Miata locally,
I would like to do the same.
Would be able to get a good deal if there is more interest than just myself, group buy style.
Not asking for commitment but would like to know if anyone is interested, please let me know.
Better yet if you know where I can get some already built specifically for Z, pls let me know.
Here is a pic of the Miata door, I believe it weighs 5lbs:

I don't know how much the carbon doors weigh. Even though my doors are gutted they are still really heavy. I took one off to do some wiring and it was way heavier than I thought it was going to be. I would say around 45lbs. I was surprised they were that heavy because there is nothing in them at all, but the latch and door lock. I would think the carbon doors would be a huge weight savings. I may consider doing this in the future.
25lbs per side just comparing door skins oem vs CF. i'd go for it.
