I'm waiting for a good company to make CF fenders as Carbon Creations probably weigh more than stock. Front lexan windshield should go on at the same time as my full cage build

I weighed the CF headlights and they are 1lb a piece. According to BJ, the OEM headlights weigh ~ 15 lbs a pop. So not bad! 28 lb savings!

I will leave the harnesses in place. The headlights are easily removed with 5 bolts, so swapping is not a huge problem.
Of course I have a daily

why not swap out the entire head light harness/ hid balast, switch to piaa driving lights?
those got to be alot lighter than the stock head lights / harnesses.
better yet.. just drive with NVGs on.
