Default Stripped interior/naked Z?

So I've been searching through the weight removal thread in the suspension section but couldn't find many pics of a stripped interior (mainly of the hatch area). And I didn't feel like searching through the hundreds of pages in travis's build journal.. Lol

Sooo does anyone have any pics of a stripped interior (no plastics, spare, tools, so on)? Just wondering how it looked naked
I might even get it vinyl wrapped depending on how much the vinyl would weigh to make it unique
Thanks!

I took everything out of my hatch area, it increased trunk space although I don't have a spare. I left some of the plastics in, I know performance motorsport has a full stripped race car as does forged.

Mine is naked in rear as well, can take a pic. It does give you quite a bit more space.

Lol thanks Calvin

Oh n thanks everyone else

did you guys strip it for weight savings or space?
And did you guys keep the sub in or ditched that too? Any suggestions for holding it in place without the spare? Spacers maybe..

No subs, did it for weight the Z is my weekend car so I can get away with it. If I get a sub later I'll figure something out right now kept audio simple. Alpine component type R's, small PDX5 amp and single din head unit. like the stripped look but it will make you even more tail happy. Enter Kognition wing....

Stripping the rear also makes the car significantly noisier, big time road roar.

I can't fathom the thought of stripping down my Z...it looks so gorgeous. I know it's weight shaving...but still....

So would removing that weight actually worsen corner handling??? I would probably move the battery to the back to make up for the change in center of gravity.

The only thing that has weight back there is the spare and the sub (if you have it). The plastic and foam is very light.
