Any thoughts?
My thoughts are that if you are just driving it no matter what you do would be ok, but who can resist really giving it all she has got every once in a while. I can't. Unless you put it on the drag strip I think any mod would be an improvement over the original. Uni-bodys are designed to absorb the energy but our frames just roll with the flow.
