Default We did put on the OEM bumper and it will fit with only a very light trim where the lower valance.

and bumper join.It rubs the lower tank in one little spot.

Default first time i've seen a resevoir go there, but adding weight to the top of the car =o\ wasn't the

original purpose of moving the battery to the trunk was to lower CG that little bit?

Default I figure Jaime could hold it in his lap and take it with him when he gets out.

Yes,the trunk. The new one is less 'n half the weight of the OEM one.

Default prob easier to relocate the battery than it would be to have the resrvoir

in the trunk and running all those lines

I would guess that weight and weight distribution was secondary to a good location for the reservoir.

Default lol i know that, i just meant that most ppl who move the battery do it for track purposes...

you're moving the weight back and lower but then replacing the weight.
