Nice job Gordon. I'll admit I was a little skeptical when you started making these pieces, but the end result is very nice indeed. Great job. Of course now, you know that you'll need to add a few "chrome" accents in your engine bay to balance out the entire look

Gordon that is pretty freaking cool. I'm not sure about the front yet but I love the rear. It really does add alot of class to the car. I can't wait to see it in person.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/18744002@N00/4867691420/ I ordered a R1 lip and I lost my front drivers headlight cover when I drove my car back home after getting it(Someone patched fiberglass on it) I will have to replace the passanger side too. Interior is Tan. Working on getting the pieces that are broken or in poor condition fixed. So far I have the interior to fix. Engine runs strong. Need a new dash cluster. Got a long project ahead of me :>

Gordon,

That rear valance looks almost photoshopped it is so seamless.

It looks DOPE!

The front needs more presentable fasteners in the back side of the mouth.

I just cant get over the way that valance turned out.
