At this point it is a moot point since I bought a new 93 bumper cover along with the R1 brake ducts, belly pan and R1 spoiler. It hurt $$ to go 99+ stuff now

I didn't weigh the chassis, the front end structure weighs about 75-100 lbs, the floor probably weighs 40-50lbs.

Does this mean that there are/were now only 4 available new FD floors? Or more can be produced?

.I don't know if Mazda will toss the tooling but I imagine the floor is such a rarely requested part they won't make anymore.
