    Cutting bumper for exhaust space...help!

    If you can drill from the inside of the bumper you could use a hole saw (some times called a tank cutter) the are available in all sizes.Although it will give you slightly more than a semi circle as it uses a drill in the center, you could straighten that up though.

    Static shocks

    I get this too... it was so bad once it left a mark on the end of my finger...

    Induction kits cause lean running...

    running lean or rich is all to do with the air/fuel mixture... if a car is running rich it is running on a mixture containing more fuel than it really needs.If it is running lean the amount of fuel in that same measure of air is smaller. Running lean can cause detonation in the cylinder...

    try using a bit of T-Cut on them... dont rub too hard though other wise youll be through to the undercoat... polish the area afterwards as the t-cut will remove any polish that is there...

    Boaty 172!

    If they did the tracking as well that would probally account for the different handling as well... especially if they adjusted it very far... its suprising the difference it can make.
