"No modifications" doesn't include the time spent with the angle grinder, 
clearancing the front shock mount, or don't you remember?   Bob was having 
kittens at the prospect of metal shavings getting onto his beautiful floor, so 
I was next to you with the shop vac, sucking up the sparks as you were 
grinding?

It's a trivial interference problem, only requiring minor trimming of the 
upper mounts for the front shocks.   Not a big deal at all, but a bit of 
distance from "No modifications". :>)
