No i dont. Saves weight. I also had to cut a hole in the hood,because
the 911 fan does not go free! (saves more weight) Now i just have
too loose 25 kg myself.HIHIHIH
Note that this car is streetlegal. Everything done too the car is on paper
and approved by the swedish Bilprovningen.What`s that called in the States Jonas?
