I plan on doing a black interior swap eventually, but next on the list is a 4 point roll bar and Takata harness', but debating whether the Takata green will look awkward or will look okay.

which bar? I want one but I am thinking it will make a already cramped car worse, at least when the top is up that is.
Also want full top operation.

Kirk Racing's 4 point roll bar, and im gonna have them add a harness bar to it. Top will still be functional but you will have to remove the targa section when putting the top down.

The seat brackets/sliders were made by Wedge Engineering - www.wedgeengineering.net, was easy just bolt them on and in, no fitment issues at all

Your FC vert is the one I most want to immitate, except with different wheels. I love that diffuser, it's the one thing I really want to do to mine.

It even looks good with the stock wheels. I'm interested to see what it will look like with skirts and new wheels.

The diffuser and wheels work somehow. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and see what it looks like with new side skirts.

Thank for the compliments and input. I decided to take a break from the car and finish paying some bills off, now that the bills are taken care of i'm back to working on the car.

I have done a little stuff here and there but nothing major, got some 25mm spacers for the rear so the wheels look more flush, picked up a new shift/e-brake boot (suede w/red stitching) should go nicely with the seats.

Should have mirrors and skirts very soon, decided to go with Re-Amemiya mirrors but not sure on skirts yet still looking - any idea's on skirts welcome

Stock + Odula skirt would add to the black/red theme he has going here. They can be acquired in carbon as well.

I was actually planning on doing this but not having any luck finding Odula skirts, only place I found so far that made them was JKL Engineering and from what im reading in their vendor thread it sounds like they are having some business issues.

Frp. http://www.rhdjapan.com/odula-frp-side-step-fc3s-56050
Carbon. http://www.rhdjapan.com/odula-carbon...tep-fc3s-56032

The price can get a little steep on the carbon, but it is still less than a grand to your door.
