    Rear bumper replacement. How much weight saving?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how much weight i will save by replacing my 73 rear bumper, valance and chrome bumper horns from my 70T with an equivalent GF 2.7RS stlye one? The original Porsche ones look much chunkier than the repro ones, so presumably a repro will reduce the weight more.... Just looking for the next project after my engine build!

    Many thanks
    Paul

    anything you can save at the rear is worth it. Piech used alu decklids to save just a couple of pounds.
