Less weight
Is there carbon fiber door for the m5 ?
I had been looking everywhere and couldn’t find any ! Any tips on getting less weight ? I already have carbon fiber hood . And if i remove the passenger side seat does it affect on the car ? |

whats your goal for the car? If wanting a light car probably best to start with something other than a 4,000+ pound hulk like the m5.

Lighter front seats, lighter wheels, lighter exhaust, carbon brake rotors, delete sunroof if equipped and replace roof with carbon, carbon hood and trunk. After that, you probably need to start removing sound deadening. Adding power also improves the power to weight ratio.
Beyond a certain point, a built engine is necessary. And eventually a built transmission. Not cheap. |

Why are you guys entertaining a person who has only posted twice.
Less weight sure remove all the doors hood and trunk. To what purpose ? Do you guys track down there ?,,, lol. Send a pic of your car so we can see the carbon hood - and provide the corresponding advice. Last edited by Danny D; 10-24-2024 at 05:23 PM.. |
