lol good work! im diggen the "stillen" style weight reduction... those 1/4" holes probably shaved off a good .5oz's! lol, jk man! looks good though, still wish you would have rounded the edges and cleaned her up to see just how good they can look! maybe in the future!

Those holes were there from the beginning. Look closely at the picture from before he sandblasted it.

now all I have to do is sandblast it and paint it. looks a smidge ruff right now will clean right up.

it helps out on real hard turns, and steering feels a bit tighter car doesnt lean as far on curves with this and back strut brace combined.
