Looks nice, keep showing the updates!
If everybody else is like me, they're interested in seeing what you have done, but don't always have something to say, so don't get discouraged that not many people are replying.

I just got finished reading this entire thread. every single post. (what can I say, when I get into something I stick like a dog chasing a ball) I LOVE this build. I've never owned or built a lowrider/DUB but I can definitely appreciate the work. It's like, I can understand lowriders or DUBs like your camaro or that yellow 70 pickup, but I can't for the life of me understand donks and hi-risers. 
Anyway, I really like the clean look of the engine bay, the way the wheels tuck the fender, the body drop, don't like the RS kit on any camaro lowered or otherwise, but I think your build is AMAZING!!! I like the interior, your skill with fiberglass is phenomenal. What color scheme are you going to go with on the final project? Got any conceptual art pics?
this isn't the first body dropped F-body I've seen. In west palm beach there's a guy with a TA called Trans Slammed. He's got custom made badges for the doors. It's pretty cool. But nearly as in depth as your build is. Keep up the good work man and CONGRATULATIONS on you baby boy!
Kamber and Gage, LOL. Only in the car world.

You have an extremely impressive talent for fabrication, man! This has been one of my favorite threads on tech. It gets so tiring of seeing threads with pics of plain f-bodies with Z06s on it. Belated congratulation on your son and keep us posted whenever you can.

If that's the case then are you going to fill in the cutaways for the pipes that are already in your rear bumper?
and you didn't answer before, what color are you going with interior and exterior? I love the smooth panels of fiberglass. It reminds me of a boat. I'm in Florida and grew up on the water so, that's a good thing.

did a turn down so the cutout won't put black on the bottom of the car like the old one did
bent and welded the hangers on

that going 2 look something like this
starting with making a copy of the old part where it sits on the firewall

Nice job as always. Just one thought, did you happen to check clearance on your exhaust band clamp bolts to the drive shaft when rear end is at full drop? Looks like it's going to be really close.
