First of all... thank you goes out to Justin @ AZ Power and Sound. :notworthy: He's their fabricator and he kicks ass. He was kind enough to fab this up for me during some of his free time. It's not exactly what he wanted and wasnt too thrilled with me takin pictures, but he's a perfectionist and takes pride in his work... i'm sure some of you can relate.
He used Diamond plate and its CONSIDERABLY lighter than the stock skid plate. I know i could probably go without it, but i'd rather be safe than sorry and have something on there.

I dont wanna hear any redneck comments about the diamond plate either...... lol if you guys knew me, you'd understand :cool:

that reminds me! i weighed the beast today at the track with me in it..

3970 with just under half a tank.

last time I weighed it it was 4050 with a 1/4 tank......


Rear seat delete is next, since I never use it :)
