Minimal visual damage from the pwning. But, now the part I painted doesnt line up perfect with the whole grille assembly. Oh well:facepalm:

I'll just live with it. It's not super noticeable, and hey, a new grille is expensive.

:pic::pic: coming later.

Very nice pics.

lol @ much louder. You must hear everything so much more without those rear seats in there to "muffle" all the noise from the exhaust.

Aside from the obvious weight reduction, how differently does the car feel once the rear seats are off?

:beer::beer: Thanks.

And in terms of volume, it is noticeably louder. Not hurt your ears loud, but you can definitely tell that they're gone.

As far as driveability. The rear end feels, hmmm, lighter I guess. It feels more lively. I didn't take out the spare or any tools for fear that as soon as I did I'd get a flat.
