No aero. Leave the body as-is.

I really dislike the standard mkI front bumper. GT3Tek makes a mkII GT3 style front bumper that I want, with mkII side skirts to go with it. Nothing too fancy.

I had some free time the other day, so I took the opportunity to yank the front bumper off the car and clean out the radiators. Holy hell, I'm pretty sure it was the first time it had ever been done. I think I cleaned enough crap out of there to qualify as a weight reduction.

I also removed the headlight washers, piping, and pump while I was at it because they are stupid.

I plan on also doing this when I redo my headlights this summer. I've already done the rear wiper delete.
