The OEM bumper crash beams are fairly lightweight aluminum. Believe it or not, we actually want to maintain the front and rear OEM crash protection, and it's very good at absorbing energy. Hopefully we wont be putting it to the test, but spins, offs, and bumps are all part of the game.

All the uneeded harnesses are unplugged, depinned, and removed. Not saving much weigh there, but it does clean things up nicely.
