How much do you want to spend?
Front:
Wheels, K member, A arms, A/C delete, CC delete, fiber glass fenders, CF hood, battery to the trunk, sway bar delete

Rear seat delete, radio delete, lighter seats, pull all the carpet and strip out the insulation, spoiler delete,ditch the jack and spare.

How much do you want to cut?

Not really worth it to sacrific the looks of your car unless your are going to be really serious about racing.

Depends how much value he puts on the change in "look". Personally, no one rides in the back of my Mustangs, so removing the back seat would be "worth it" because they are worth-less to me and I don't care if there's a hole into the trunk.

I definitely get what you're saying... I'm just saying not everyone cares about the same things.
