Big Update!
Been spending 40 hours per week the past month working on the paint and carbon stuff. Almost done buffing the paint and such, carbon roof is done. Installed the nitrous tanks after painting them (using a Zex system but not the Zex bottle...opted for a pair of OBX bottles due to their size). Carbon fabrication of the door pulls, window switch covers, door sills and interior panels are just about done. ....Im going to need a vacation after this lol.... |

Really nice airbrush work, looks like you've got some experience with that.
I also really like the way that personal wheel looks! If I wasn't so attached to my airbag and steering wheel controls, I'd be all over that! hm.. maybe when the Recaro seat goes in. |

Today I finished the engine brightwork...polished the timing cover (which is a pain), painted all the brackets, and polished all the aluminum lines.
Also finished the carbon guage pods and shifter bezel. Tomorrow Ill thermal wrap my intakes (temporary until I install my super charger this winter). Also on the list will be to layout how Im going to do the fiberglass/carbon trunk inlay. |
