I'm enjoying your thread so far, but shaving the high mount brake light?! If this is only a track car, I guess that makes sense. But on a street car, a high mount 3rd brake light has been proven to reduce rear-endings by a substantial amount. This is why they are legally required in most areas. Having been rear ended myself, I would never remove that light. In fact, I'm going to mount some super bright blinking LEDs like some motorcycles have.
