Removed the front bumper support and fog lights. Nice weight reduction for a couple hours work....and right off the nose too. Battery relocation kit coming this week. I'll report back with that later.

Wow Jay I figured that hunk of metal would have been long gone on your car by now haha. I took mine off as well a while back. Definitely a nice reduction on the nose. Just dont rear end someone or you have to buy more than a bumper!
