Tell them to move their @sses to Cleveland and start doing some real police work.
Did he nic you for the tail lights? I got a warning for those as well, but no friggin way I'd get rid of them. Make the car look so much better.
$7,261 is not enough to run a car company.

Bye Bye Saleen. The S7 is one of my favorites I would buy on impulse after hitting the lottery.
I really need to stop looking at things for the RX7. I went through the body shop quote cutting out items I don't need to save some money then I turn around and find a fiberglass hatch that would add all the cost I just removed back in. Do I need to cut another 40 lbs out of the car?
Windshield, no. Yes, just get your eye doctor to write a prescription and you are good to go.
No glass - lexan, which is one of the main things causing me to hesitate. That stuff is a pain to maintain. It likely won't even need to be painted either. The stock piece is painted black and the guy that makes the fiberglass one paints it as well. The other issue is it requires a custom installation. It's possible to use the stock hinges but there's no provision for the latches so something like hood pins would be needed. Most people I know with them make the hatch fully removable and only use Dzus fasteners to hold it down. This requires welding brackets to the body, which adds time and time = money.Well...less 40 lbs + never going rust + I'm assuming lighter glass (already factored in?) + doing it now means only one trip to the paint booth...
The overall car weight goes down (obviously) but now the balance will be changes (however slightly) because the front is now a bigger fraction of the total weight and the opposite for the rear. I'm sure I've got the weight balance all screwed up at this point. It'll be corner-weighed eventually to determine if I should add weight to better balance the car.Physics questions?
Whats the balance of the car weight wise?
Would lighting the hatch increase the balance of the car more towards the front for it to make a difference?
Is there enough weight on the rear for the power being put down to keep the car from getting loose in the rear?
Thanksgiving with the kids. stacked fire wood and organized the garage, made a shopping list for the cars.
