FWIW my OEM bootlid came in slightly higher than the figure you have quoted in the OP. Without carpeting or hardware the trunklid weighed in at 26.0 lbs.

The OEM brake weights that were weighed on the same scale seem to correlate with your figures, however.
I weighed the OEMs (Caliper, Rotor, and Dust Shield) and here are the results...
Fronts: 41.8 lbs.
Rears: 34.9 lbs.
...now onto the BBK and VRS double-sided trunk. 
I will get you the numbers asap. Stay tuned. |
Apples to apples would be caliper (with pads included I'm assuming) + rotor. Could placing the dust shield in the weight of the OEM set up and not in the afermarket system be slightly biasing the aftermarket? Sure it is a potential weight savings that should be documented but again potentially not totally apples to apples.
