Anybody know what the stock weight of the steel side fenders are? I'm looking at getting some fiberglass ones and I'm just curious what the weight savings will be...

Nope...





I was wonderin if anybody was gonna ask me where I'm getting them, lol. I guess I'll tell ya...corksport is now making them and I already emailed them and they told me that they weigh 5lbs(he should be posting the weight online soon)...they are $375 for the pair, and look awesome if you ask me...not to aggressive, but a good look.
