Weight savings: OEM vs Carbon do luck trunk

Actual weights (bare shells):

OEM trunk without wing


Seibon Carbon Fiber do-luck trunk
*Upon weighing, I didn't realized I had hardware installed. Which are the four main bolts and two for the third brake light.

Just about 7lbs. Not bad at all. Let us know how that sucker fits.

I thought the OEM trunk weighed more than that.

So bottom line.. It's just not worth it for 7 lbs

I got mine for looks not weight reduction and I'm sure most have done the same.
