Kart without grille

[zerver]

A quick and dirty Photoshop job



Would this modification be legal? Most unlikely, but who cares?

I think my cart will look something like this when I'm finished with it.
But I may mount the light slightly lower.

Not really quick and dirty, rather professional. Although it looks somehow naked now. But it might be because i'm already so used to that thing.

The mask is now completely visible and it's a bit ugly isn't it?

Although I'm not quite sure what you're referring to when you say "mask", it sure looks a bit more naked without the grille.

I guess it's a matter of taste, but when I compare them side by side I must say I prefer this one.

Hm, how would you call that black thing below the head light, Is Windshield a better word for it?
I agree it's better without that grille, but one has to look for a different windshield too then.

Ah, that black thing ... it cannot be the trunk so it's gotta be the hood then

hi,
also mal ehrlich, das kart ohne grill sieht megaverschärft aus; sind wir doch mal ehrlich - im falle eines crashs bringt der grill keinen schutz vor verletzungen. aber, die betriebserlaubnis ist ohne grill erloschen, oder ?
wenn nein wäre es für mich die erste tuningmaßnahme, ich schwörs.

I would say the grill offers very little or no protection to the driver at all.
Neither does it make pedestrians feel any safer, I'd rather be hit by a kart that has no grille....

To me, the grille's only purpose seems to be mounting of the headlight and license plate.
But that plate can be mounted on the rear instead and the headlight should not be too difficult to mount directly on the "hood".

hmmm,
ich sag nur, blech weg, grill weg - gewicht sparen wo es nur geht, denn gefährlicher wirds deswegen nicht - aber schneller, haha.
