oh i'm dumb lol forgot what we were talking about.

i'm sure there is some weight savings but since its cleared CF and not raw CF its probably not much. now the fact that they are vented and pieces of the fender are missing then maybe a little weight savings there.

as for tire width i thing the fenders are EOM specs aside from the vented area.

Well if they are OEM spec you can have some "random acts of vandalism" happen then be forced to buy new fenders

his dad rarely lets anyone in the garage so him doing work for others would be probably not an option lol

Damn. I'll make an appointment I guess haha.

But seriously we can arrange for some strange children to target Blue Z's in the area and only the fenders. I think I saw that news article a few weeks ago

Doh! So the Mrs. said she is on board for an exhaust system if it has a Ferrari sound. I said I'll need to add six cylinders for that.

I figured that would be the case. I make the car a project for both of us so in all actuality me not buying parts means that I am taking away parts of the project. Thanks for talking some sense back into me

I think she's hinting that you have the green light to buy a ferrari.

You could be just like this (minus the viper)

Lol! I set you up for that one. Seriously which setup would have a low, deep growl to it? I've listened to quite a few online and am drawn to the Berk sound, but would like to hear it in person too.
