Attaboy! Not to mention many other benefits on not having a pano. Too bad there isn't a full metal roof option.

Thanks for the welcome Jason and fellow M157's.

My wallet's not nearly as deep as many of the guys on here, so my mods will be limited. They will also take time, as I tend to research the heck out of any little upgrade I make to my cars. The few mods I do follow through with will all be performance oriented, and emphasize a balance of effectiveness and reliability. Most importantly, I will be sure to share unbiased, objective results every step of the way.
