So I've ordered front and rear glass bumpers and front brackets . Front bumper loaded was 33.6 pounds. Rear with brackets was 24 pounds. Replacement bumpers are 4 pounds each!
Filler neck was 1# 12ounces. Pulled the vent line and trunk grommet as well. Anyway looking at removing the non functioning headlamps and hardware. No harness in the car so don't go there. I see 7 inch decals available . What are racers doing?

Have some aluminum discs made that will fit in the headlight rings. A print shop could print you up some vinyl stickers that look like a headlight. Or buy these.

These are decals on fiberglass. You could cut some aluminum disc as stated above and put the decals on those.

Before I consult my NHRA rule book can I use aluminum sheet to cover the hole left when I remove this? I'd assume so at a certain minimum thickness like the rear firewall.
