F**K THE SYSTEM!!
My headlight motor are f-ed up. SO i rigged them to stay up all the time, since I used to daily drive it.
Now that i have a maxima as my DD, i probably going to lower them.

As stupid as it sounds I keep mine up for front end location. My racing seat sits down and back and even though I could guess where my front bumper is leaving my headlights up gives me a lil more visual on just where everything is. Kinda dumb but hey I am a lil off in the head.

Please enlighten me as to how thats a bullshit answer. You asked a question, of questionable merit in and of itself. Then you recieved the correct answer and proceed to call bullshit on it. The only thing that one could take away from this logic is your question was bullshit from the very start.
Headlight motors/ retractor mechanisms weight a fair amount. Add to that this weight is in the last place you want extra weight and it pretty much makes its own gravy.

So the furthest most part of the car is the last place you want extra weight? The *** end is where you want to pull the most weight from because it moves the most between turns and and significant weight there will cause the car to transfer slower and carry more momentum. Your logic is debunked.

its a bullshit answer because you will never notice. its like 7 lbs combined.
I had an r-magic fixed headlight bumper ans then switched back to stock
guess how much it affected me at the track (and i go quite often)
NONE. the cars physics DID NOT CHANGE AT ALL. the front wheels are so close to the front of the car, that it would be that big off an effect anyway.
think about a FMIC if you have one. did the cars physics change due to the weight balance and not to a little addidtional power...NO, it did not. You can go ahead and try to convince me otherwise, but i will probably never change my mind due to my firsthand experiences
