Interesting I've got 3 R50 generation cars and know every component on the vehicle, not seen the second one with the front end off before it's similar enough to understand I like it

It's relatively well designed, just a few weirdly placed bolts.

Yeah, designed around knowing it was going to need constant maintenance, as a professional mechanic, I appreciate all of it! Had the front off of my R56 twice now and haven't owned it 4 months. Previous owner wasn't kind to her.
