I'd be near 10kg with that and the wiring I've cut out. Maybe another 10-15kg when I chop the doors, probably another 20kg or more in the glass. Interesting.

Nova really that heavy? I swear my gsi corsa is less than that as its non sun roof no electric model. Fibreglass wings sound good idea yep. Your nova thread makes me want another one tbh.

Don't mean to be rude but them sticky pads are shocking. Make sure you get the mating surface nice and clean otherwise you'll end up with nothing holding the loom on!
