Aside from a nice touch of personal customisation, your weight savings holes should prove functional as well....

My previous car had the deep 964C2 style rear bar and light assemblies, and it was amazing how much air gets trapped back there. Video footage and all the dirt streamlines in the wet show up the various air paths trying to find any way out....
Can see on the newer 911 race cars they basically have nothing behind the rear wheels now.
That’s one of the reasons I liked and kept the early rear bar, it’s much higher and smaller so less to catch the air.

Keep up the modifications, and the suspense of what your going to tackle next...
