I prefer the diffuser on the photochopped jobbie!
True it's not but then it's a photoshop and this is real so could be used to get the effect.

Hey,

Yes I'm in NJ, USA. I thought I had input my location on the account info, just updated it now.

Regarding the battery.. It's supposed to last "a lot longer" than a conventional battery. It will lose its charge after about 3 weeks if you leave the car un-touched for that amount of time. The cool feature to solve that problem is that there is a trigger on the battery. Once it reaches a certain low voltage, the battery cuts it's connection with the car, leaving you with enough charge to start the car 10 times in a row. All you have to do is press a button on the battery and it's back on, after running the car for about 10 minutes, the batter is fully charged again.

Well the lightweight battery is all part of a big plan I have accomplished. From the full exhaust, wheels, battery, suspension and OEM bucket seats I have managed to shed about 200 lbs (90 kg) off the car. It feels great!

Very clean though, really suits the car
I see what you are saying, it's actually the way the photo was taken. The car is over a slight hill in the middle of the road in an agnle. I just checked and the fender gap front and rear is identical.

Thanks for the compliment!

You're not Philly / Marlton way are you?

200 lbs is impressive, what weight saving would you account for each of the individual items?
