the holes do a few things, they let air out from under the car, removing the rubber bumper bolt on pieces loses a few pounds, and the holes help lose a small amount of weight as well. If I had my way, they would have been a lot bigger, but I didn't drill them. I could have used a fiberglass rear euro bumper, but during SCCA races I find that you frequently use both your front and back bumper in traffic during starts and generally the first turn, so I wasn't prepared to lose the shock absorption.

Got these in today, for the TDC sensor hole and the TDC sight hole. Freshly 3D printed from our very own 944TurboYYC. Great job man!

New ball joints and control arm bushings for my '84. After I put these in and align the front suspension, my car will finally be ready for AutoX!!

some relay+socket+fuse block kits, to delete my DME relay.
some little angle shims, to aim down my LED bars in the grille of my 944T bumper.

the LED bars have a 30 degree beam angle and are mounted horizontally, so the light hitting the road isn't as much as it could be, and there is a lot of light going up towards oncoming traffic. the lights have built in adjusters but they are only 10 degrees at a time, which brings the beam too close.
the new shims are about 8* which should be a happy middle point of putting light on the ground, at a good distance.

i use these lights as headlights.
