There are three ways to do:
First way is to lighten up the head by trimming the bumper guard so that just the grommet strip for stringing remains. I wouldn't recommend this because the bumper guard does help keep the frame safe and this may not reduce weight enough to make the frame 4 pts HL.
Second way - Option 1 - would be to add weight to the butt. Remove the butt cap and insert a lead ball or small lead weight wrapped in cotton into the handle and replace the butt cap. If your butt cap has a trap door like some Wilson butts do this is easy otherwise requires you to remove the grip, then remove the butt, then insert the weight make sure it doesn't move around, replace the butt and then re grip.
Option 2 - An easier way to do the butt addition is to add a strip of lead tape around the butt but again this may require removing the leather grip, wrapping the lead tape around the bare shaft near the butt end, and then re-gripping .
If choosing either of these options be sure to measure the weight that you are adding and check the balance of a balance checking device or makeshift checking device both before and after. If you have more than one frame that you are planning to do this to you may want to be as precise as possible for consistency in the frames. Some proshops can actually do this for you.
Thirdly - the easiest way is to sell the current frame and buy one that is 4 pts HL.

Again, great question. MQ1: Kill em All is the best album from the list, even though I loved Show No Mercy too. MQ2: In this round I like Peace Sells...But Who's Buying? The album name is my favourite for a start, and the songs in the album. The guitar solos in "Devil's Island" and "Good Mourning/Black Friday" are amazing. MQ3: Aww this is hard! I'd say a tie between Reign in Blood and Master of Puppets. I own both albums and love both. In fact, both albums are my favourite albums from Slayer and Metallica respectively. I like them because the guitar solos are just freakin' BADASS and the way the songs are written and performed...just plain LEGENDARY. MQ4: Rust in Peace MQ5: Seasons in the Abyss, because my favourite Slayer song "Dead Skin Mask" is on it! BQ: My favourite band out of the big 4 is probably Slayer. Kerry King and Jeff Hannemann are both amazing guitarists and have produced near impossible solos that I can never forget in a lifetime. On the other hand, Metallica is the first band out of the 4 I've gotten into, and Megadeth has the most influential albums. BQ3: World Painted Blood - pretty good, although not as good as Slayer's older albums. Death Magnetic - MUCH better than St Anger Endgame - some good solos but I thought the songs were a bit repetitive. We've Come for You All - haven't listened to it yet. BQ4: errr...kinda I guess. they're the least famous out of the 4 BBBQ: yes you really do! BBBBQ: Slayer - Reign in Blood, Metallica - a tie between Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets, Megadeath - Peace Sells, Anthrax - Among the Living
