I acknowlege, not everyone has the same tastes, so the only thing I don't care for (and I'm sure you'll lose sleep on this) is the hood. Everything else is F*V)NG georgous!!! LOVE the color, LOVE the cage and love everything else!!!

um, no. I had the top redone about a two years ago. With the south florida heat, the glue at holds it together along the top rails was coming loose and it was bubbling when driving around. Kinda embarrasing when you have a custom painted car with a top like that!!

UPDATE!: Final on paint and body work. Still needs a final buff which will take place after the assembly process.

Well, as you can see, she is all painted up, carpet is installed along with a rear sear delete box. Its a custom stitch job done through a shop eric knew.
The carpet came out really sweet! Seems to hug nice and its no too wrinkled, which i hate in carpets! Also, I believe it's a low weight one but I don't think it's gonna help much with this close to 4000lbs. slug! Well, I guess the i'm just gonna have to turn it up some more!

Assembly should begin on monday. So I guess we are in the home stretch, then tune and some track time to evaluate the suspension and tire choice. And yes, we'll get some video!!

LaterZ! oh, enjoy!!

Tech:

Yeah, i had some but they didn't make it!!! For sure I'm getting some clears, but im not sure if to get them white and match the stock headlights

OR, get them smoked and either smoke the stockers up front or get a set of smoked lens with halo's from ebay.

What do ya'll think of that idea?

Vendetta V6: Yeup!!! Those tints are OOOOLD!!!!!! 5% going in soon!

Thanks for the compliments guys!!! Extreme did a great job and as it was mentioned before; for the money invested, it came out great! I really, really love the way the rollcage shines!!
