Na just get some of those weights they add to tractors and put them on your front bumper. I hear they really add style to a vehicle. Not to mention a great front impact protection tool. [img]smile.gif[/img]

adding wieght to the back of a fwd will make the traction of the front wheels less so you will have less grip for acellerating
but it should give closer to a 50/50 weight balance and improve handling as it will help remove the nasty understeer most fwd cars have
but that said, how friken heavy is you install dude [img]smile.gif[/img]
