Functionally, that isn't so far off, actually. On a Tiga Sports 2000 that I used to take care of, the nose section of the body had a glassfibre splitter that was a separate "sacrificial" piece, allowing us to run the front end lower. The splitter would wear out and replacements cost a tiny fraction of what a new nose would have...

I think the first function is the correct one and the other 2 are bogus and meant to appeal to the fast and the furious generation.

I really like the fact that he wants $235 shipped for:
- 1 pair OMP Light Steady Bars: $25
