Why??? Seriously, Why?? Who cares if people think you have a 12 bolt? Last i checked i got excited over the performance of the car, not the strength of the rear end.

So people think you a 12 bolt and then you break it at the track. What is the point?

Why dont you just put an intercooler in the front of your car?

Yeah...I put one under my car before it was fashionable. I was gonna run this Civic for $500, and he wanted to check my car tip to tail. He got under the rear, and saw that cover, and backed off immediately. I think his exact words were "Oh my gosh, I didn't know you had a 12-bolt." Just went home tail between his legs...true story.

I recently purchased an electronic gear whine box. I have it all setup with a potentiometer connected to the vehicle speed sensor to adjust the output level, so it varies with with speed; just like a whiney diff! That way my 10 bolt will whine like a poorly set up 9 inch!

"Show those ricers you mean business! No one will want to mess with someone with a poorly set up, noisey 9 inch rear!"

I just thought of that would it act like a gridle as well, I know gridles are debatle, but looking at this product i'd doubt it honestly.
