    Shock Towers

    Why is everyone so fascinated by the shock towers? My personal favorite is the fact that the gas cap has been filled in on the back panel:dance: . Has any one ever seen one like that before?

    It's not that no one noticed any of the other mods, but I can give you at least three reasons for the comments right off the bat:

    1. It's a mod that a lot of folks would be interested in.
    2. It makes a very bold and obvious difference to the look of the engine bay.
    3. The way it's been done, it looks factory. There are a lot of shoddy looking backyard shock tower removal jobs out there (no offense to anyone here who's done it, it's your car, so do what you want with it).

    Very nice. Lots to admire about this project. Removing the gas filler neck really cleans up the rear panel. Definitely like the tubs. Makes for a really great rear and side profile. Looking forward to seeing the finished work and welcome to the board. Thanks for sharing. (y)
