I am 87 and live alone so I have that freedom. I then used the very friendly plastic, LEXAN to fasten the small bumper to the car, making a 16'' extension. Encouragement came from the short boattail on the GM impact race car. MetroMPG set up an address for the project since I am a newbie.

There are phase 1 photos. Great minds run in the same gutter.

I think he made an aluminum boat tail for his Insight. I never saw it though, and i haven't found any pictures of it. I was told a Boat tailed Insight was at the GGP 2012? I was told it didn't look that great though.

I'm curious what ever happened to that car. After all the stuff he did to it, i think it'd be a hard sell.
