i think he did paint the spoiler. I'd say do the top of the spoiler in that quick silver, but do the bottom like that berger panel. looks good overall!

I want to know what you think of the quality of the ebay sunoco. It seems to be the same structurally as the VFN, however, I've heard that the finish is better.

the hood quality is so-so, the main problem is that there isnt enough curvature in the hood from front to back. I am going to have to make a series of cuts along the bottom and put some ratchet straps on it and re-glass those areas to put a bit more slope in it. It is high in the front about .4" and also high in the back. It was cheap though so I dont mind the work.

dear god. you sir, are an inspiration. I will be doing pretty much the same thing after I finish my motor swap, and do all my interior work (as far as paint goes, my car only had minor body damage, front right fender and front bumper. but its got a gross amount of door dings and paint chips.) also, getting those same headlights pretty soon, they look good.

So Ive got about 2500 miles on the car now, still havent lowered it or painted anything else

Last month I went to the track and ran a 14.02@102, it was horrible! 2.73s stock stall and a 28.5" tire are not good together, crossed the line at 5400 in 2nd gear.

Couple weeks ago I installed 4.10 gears which are just awesome. with the tall tire they are a blast to drive around town and stuff

This last weekend I switched to E85 and since I had the day off today I got most of the tuning done with that. Makes good power now with 29* of timing vs the 17-18* of stock. Traction in 1st is lacking, will be getting some 15x10s and big drag radials once the stall goes in or it will be worthless!
