By the way - I spent all summer between my Junior and Senior years of high school riding the die grinder with a cutoff wheel, cutting all of the structure out behind the chrome bumper bar (both front and rear).
There was 60lbs of weight on each end of the car. IIRC I was able to get 45 lbs out of each door, removing the guard rail and any flat metal that did not offer any structure.
I'm glad I don't ever have to do that again: I don't have the time, inclination or energy anymore.
