Here is what comes to mind:

Carbon Fiber Hood
Alloy Rims 17'

I wondered about the axles though is there a substitute for stock axles that would make for a reduction in weight?

Some people have described ripping out the rear carpet and adhesive what did you finish it with to make your vehicle not look craptastic?

Anyother less obvious things that can be swapped for weight reduction?

errr.... subway diet????

your doors interior can be swapped out with fiberglass ones.

all you got to do is make a flat sheet if fibreglass and paint it the color of your interior or some color you like, and find some way to attach it to the inside of your door (leave out the pwr locks/winds)

I know it sound weird but I saw it done on a VW and it actually looked really great, it was like mirror black.
