I also thought about a dimple die...but of course I don't have one. I suppose I could just drill large holes. It would still have to make the frame way more rigid than the factory did.

Agreed. Although, it's worth considering whether the juice is worth the squeeze. The plates I made for my frame probably add up to about 10lbs max. Cutting holes in them will lighten them up, but not by enough to matter. For a dedicated race car, it would be a worthwhile pursuit. On a street car, it won't make a bit of difference.

Either way, I think you'll be glad you boxed the frame. It's pretty striking just how insignificant the frame is from the factory.
