Can these be removed?
Do they add alot of strength?
Can i remove them and seam weld the pannel joints and leave that area free from metal or should i sort a new light weight pannel for there to replace the original?
Car will have a weld in cage with ties to the front towers and rear turrets.

Cheers paul

Im sure this has been asked before but i cant find the thread either..
With a cage i would remove it, imo all it adds is stiffness and the cage likely replaces that

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Yep. My shell doesn't have them (78), so they can't be that important.

Wicked, they look heavy! Goo to get them gone then hehe. Starting to get more difficult to take much more weight out of bits now. Only 7 places left on the shell now

If you cut cut them off close to the window lips that would be smashing. Obviously I'll cover post and some beer vouchers. There's no mad rush. They are more for inspiration for something else...
