Hmm, well since I'm bored as s4!t & read that whole thread I'll chance my arm & say that it's not all bad in principle. Especially if you really really wanted the last word in weight saving (and had already ground off body seams, non-structural panelwork, removed unused captive nuts, shaved the windscreen & fitted tyres with a skim of tread left filled with helium...)

Basically it's not as bad an idea as it seems, just a bit pointless.
