Unfortunately here in Poland we have very strict rules and I can't go for a boat tail or to delete mirrors. But for sure I'll try kamback, wheel spats, smooth belly pan, grill block. So there's a lot of work ahead of me.

To be honest I'm still thinking how far I can go for FE. Should I stip everything, delete as much as possible to save weight. But on the other hand I'm rarely driving in the city, and on the highway weight is not such a big issue. Any suggestions?
