We do from time to time half *** things on purpose but the thought of not actually rolling the fronts never actually crossed my mind as it had 9ks

I did think about only doing the rears

Here is a rolling shot Hoss-05 took on the way back from our tuning session with Kane.

Took my son and myself on a spirited drive up the mountain and snapped a few pics with my phone. Enjoy.

No, just put them in Lightroom for some touch ups, still some glare though. Ha. But they are phone pics so not too worried.

The relocated license plate seems weird... It's placed directly over the air opening

Yeah it's right in front of the air inlet. But he lives in a cold climate so it's a no issue. I hate the way front plates look though, I have never ran one.

I took my front plate off about two weeks ago and felt bad because I could get a ticket. Then I went to a Mazda meet locally and at least 30 others had it off, too. I don't feel so bad anymore.
