 Re: r 1 coupe
I got rid of the 2 rear ears on the rear subframe as they are not used for anything, some people mount their muffler off them but I mounted mine further up and out of the way using a couple of new mounts off the subframe welded on. Another weight saving and I think it looks better.

 Re: r 1 coupe
Hi Flippspeed Just been looking through your photos (I am new to this forum) - brilliant job - I think it's great when you get to a stage where it begins to take shape, so well done and keep the photos coming! Woody
