Depends on how crafty you are. I'm sure I can do it. I used to do custom stereos and that kinda bullshit... I think I can be successful. I'll go ahead and get started, and let you guys know whether or not it's worth it. Might do it on the side if there is interest.

Covering the rear bins and rear plastics will add ~3lbs. 5 tops. No biggie. I can shed 5 somewhere. I'm looking forward to getting started.. If the end result turns out the way I see it in my head... I think you guys will like! Lets hope!

Well, I started. It looks badass. I believe I will need a better adhesive though... This **** don't comfort me. No biggie. It's a test phase... Anybody know what Mazda used? I know the A pillars are plastic, covered in vinyl. What the hell did they use? I'll get some pics up in the morning.... When I finish my "test" panel.

the 3M spray ahesive is pretty good, otherwise some contact cement
from a laminate or the hardware store, not that thin shitty white stuff
that weldwood makes though, that stuff is junk, you need the thicker
contact cement, spray it on both sides, let it sit a few minutes, then press it together. Be VERY carefull with the fumes as they are EXTREMEMLY flammable.
