Yea found this thread today. Def loving this ride! This customization is amazon! took you some time to get it together. But who said perfection happens over night. Love your work. Wish I had the type of skills you do with fiber glass. I could have so much fun with my ride if I could do what you do. But yea love your work and your car.
