I will soon have more update on this.
Just got my first set pieces pop out of the mould, this first set pieces are in fiberglass and will be my test fit set. I will take pics of it once all been painted black and on the car, hopefully all will fit nicely together on the car.
After everythings look fit nicely together, I will start making the 2nd set in carbon fiber.

This really is an incredible thread to watch progress. How much time would you say you have invested in this project already? I don't think I have the sticktoitiveness to take on a project like this, and Iove doing projects on my car. Keep us posted.

Been like 4yrs or so now, I spent like 4-5hr each days on weekdays during night time after work, and for weekend I spent a lot of time on it and I don't sleep sometime.
If you have a passion in it and have your mind set and don't ever think of giving up when you do hit a few up and down bump.

Yes it totally needs a classy vent, this the same thing I thought to break up the lines.

Check out the new viper, they have a couple cool stock hoods. Or maybe ferrari or porsche would be a better place to look, im not familar with those hoods.

Been like 4 months or so
I won't be updating anymore on this because of the summer here are very super hot which I been slacking off.
The car are pretty much complete @90%
Just need a fews parts for it, like new rear rims and tyres and the car engine to dyno etc.
New rear rims might take 6-8 months before arrive to me..which is a long wait.
Once all that done, first thing I will do are hit the track with it.
More pics will be on here till then.
Just need to be patient as I am being very patient and anxious with the waiting time lolz.
