I deleted the passenger side mirror today and also removed the splash guards from behind the front wheels. I may end up repurposing them into spats and/or mounting points for wheel skirts with some minor modifications. So far for this tank I'm at 320 miles with 1/4 tank remaining, this is usually when I have to fill it so when that time comes I'm hoping for a decent improvement! I know just going off the gauge isn't too accurate but I'm hopeful. I just downloaded dashcommand for android and I'll be ordering a Bluetooth obd dongle to get some instrumentation here soon. Next up is an improved front air dam and some side skirts made from lawn edging. Would metal edging or plastic be a better choice? The flexibility of plastic would be nice for pulling out of driveways so I don't break anything when I scrape but I'm not sure if that flexibility would be a good thing on the highway.
