I don't know anyone doing the 4th gen parts, but you could make a dash from aluminum pretty easy, same with door panels

if it just a drag-type car, just scrap all the unneeded and leave it that way- but i don't know how your car is either so its hard to say.

I would say gut the rest of the interior first and leave the dash intact as long as possible..

Umm...the previous owner had it on there so I got lucky.

If you still have your stock hood on the car- ditch it. Aftermarket hoods weigh quite a bit less- its a good weight saving right there.
