Do they make any aftermarket plastic washer fluid bottles that are small and bolt to just one side & I can plug the sensor into? I'd love to get that plastic monster out from behind the nose...Thanks guys.

just find a smaller vehicle that takes the same sensor and plug. like maybe a cobalt. then you could rig up the mounting. im sure most gm cars would go universal on the washer fluid electronics.

do you know how to fiberglass? maybe you could glass something up.. cut your in half or something, and then use it as a template, or find someone who know's how to used fiberglass.. i mean, is it really that big of a weight saving? if so, you could just use less water. :D

No, honestly I want it removed to bring even more air into the car. I have a FIPK and I've removed the plastic bottom shrouds under the front of the car and cut a giant hole on the radiator support. Weight savings & more room to work under the hood are just bonus's...
