We're probably all over the map about keeping it original or not. For me, if it resembles its original state, I've missed something.
For the longest time I was under the impression that FGRV had a hit squad aimed at people like me. I tended to hide in the house and not notice the car with the darkened
windows across the street. It's not paranoia when they are actually after you.
Since then I've realized the truth, and now I drill, cut, replace, and modify with a pure heart. It's so liberating.
