Are you talking about removing it and keeping it out? if so then no.It's more of a DIY for people looking to get to the rear speakers or reaplostering it.

Yup did every thing myself. I don't have the least patients but I definitly don't have the most. lol. That's why I only worked on them for an hour or so a day.

Looks good. I also removed my rear panels and painted them and had the tabs break on me as well. Keep up the good work

It's really light. I guess you could remove all your panels though that may help a little. I don't really know but have heard of guy's doing that and lowering there 1/4 mile times but I don't know how much.
