    I guess I'm alone. Mind you, I only like the lights louvered. The hatch area ends up looking huge and hideous when louvered.

    The louvered lights make the car look like it's wearing sunglasses, and angry. Like a proper '80s action hero. lol.

    Where's a good place to put the front plate when you shave the bumper? I am thinking bottom off to the side somewhere. It just seems silly to put it back in the same spot afterward. Anyone have opinions on this?

    Also is the front plate mount a solid block or do you have to fill up a giant hole afterward?

    The point of shaving the front bumper is to NOT run a front plate. If you plan on running one, then leave it as is. It is not a solid block.



    Great shot Neil!

    Must have been hard to have the truck next to you at perfectly matched speed during the corner with a steady photographer standing up.

    You mean when I shaved it off, and left the hole for a cold air intake?

    I wish I could go back in time and slap myself sometimes.

    My car after hand polishing the wheels, and buying hideous capri pants....
