I'm not quite obsessed enough that it's going to affect what I eat or who I take with me, sry.

Head: I'm not trying to get to any particular weight, just figured I'd ask.

Are there aftemarket K-members for the 5th Gen yet?

That was a way to drop 40-50 lbs off the nose in the 4th Gen days.

It all depends on how much you want to spend really. There's a lot of good info in this thread:
