No, that would cause excessive drag with no windows.

Take a few screws and bolts out here and there. You could take the paint off, or the wheels-wheels can be pretty heavy

If you've stripped the rear then the next thing to remove is the sound proofing.

Everyone else suggesting silly things - you are not helping.

If its still got to be a usable everydayer, then think on the lines of, get rid of spare and carry that foam/gunk stuff. take mats out, maybe rear speakers, etc. Just think about stuff you don't need/use

And also bear in mind that if it's going to be a daily driver you've got to live with hearing everything.
