Time passing is problematic for evaluating small modifications!
But it should be a nice surprise come warm temps

We are happy to have you. As often as people join because their 2010 hybrid SUV is getting 12 mpg and they don't know how to change it without changing driving style, or car- it is extremely pleasant to have someone join like this!

Impressive start, your mods look well done. I am surprised you do not have a grill block yet. We just took my wifes off, because of appearance, so we will see her mileage without until she makes her own.

I just finished my own upper and lowers.
