Maybe pm me your number and I can text you tomorrow and see if you are free.
I just sent you a PM and then saw you posted in my thread. I'm getting the exhaust welded up tomorrow so a test drive might not be in the cards at 4pm (unless I ditch work early lol), but at a minimum you're welcome to swing by for a bit and maybe I'll have it running without the undertray or diffuser installed. I still haven't turned it on since I parked it last Fall.

Yea I know, but these cars did come with full carpet interior and sound deadening, I am just adding a little back in at a fraction of the weight. The car is still 200 lbs lighter than stock.

I normally wouldn't care, but the sound level was just brutal, to the point of hearing loss when going over 70mph for extended periods of time. I am fine with the bouncy & uncomfortable ride but super loud is another story. Aren't all the old guys on this forum making their cars quieter anyway?

LOL, just thought that the couple pounds I saved with that carbon wing should make up for the couple pounds of foam and carpet!
