I would :) I'll have to check with them. problem is we'd have to split the
probably min folks who'd be interested between gen1/2, although there seems
to be a bias towards the gen1 cars for the guys who race them and would be
interested in the savings
not to squabble over a few lbs, but I would hope to get into the 8 lb range
at that $$
we need somebody to make us some fascia's to, front and rear with custom
alum brackets (dump the 5 mph lead bumper shocks). could also slightly move
the location of the fog light holes for better located brake cooling duct
inlets
realize the stock fascias are 100 lbs. With an 8 lb hood, and custom
fascia's, you could drop 120-130 lbs off and still look bone stock...
