Whose the fabricator? Cool if you're not comfortable sharing, but would really help out the community if we shared who we can or can't trust.

Yes, carbon roof updates eventually will be shared. I'm waiting for fab work and wiring to be done and then I'll drop it off for body work.
The fabricator was Rob Dham's guy. His name is Isaiah "fabrication father" Duran. I highly do NOT recommend using him.
Anyway, I wanted to provide a progress update before I responded. I got my new Rouge Motorsports roll bar in. I was going to just have the fab guy make one, but after the debacle with him I decided to just buy one.

Thanks! Guess I'll update...
Decided to replace all the 90's disintegrating foam underneath the dashboard and inside of the heater core/blower/evaporator with some new closed cell foam. Followed this write up on here for all three.

Small things as I'm still waiting for the fab shop to fit me in.
Racebred front splitted, RGN canards, AI One Design Haltech IC-7 injection molded gauge cluster (didn't like the look of the carbon interior), Pioneer W4600NEX doubledin, Rouge Motorsports Recaro Pole Position seat rail sliders, and Useless Projects carbon rear privacy cover.

Drivetrain is set in place at 2.90 deg. Modified the FischTech racing CD009 tranmission mount to push everything back 1.5"
Modified the V1 Samberg differential mount, so the exhaust would fit.
Starting on front tube frame. We'll see how hard mounting the radiator works out. We were going to use isolaters, but wanted some rigidity with the undersweep being so close.
I'll keep trying to update here, but more photos are on my IG. whitexdevil_fd3s

I would take that fisch racing mount and weld it. See where the bolts go through to attach the leg to the main body of the mount? That is weak and broke on their diff mount of similar design. That's why they are redesigning it the diff mount.
They should have welded it from the start, as drilling 2 wholes through a narrow piece of metal and expecting it to be strong makes no sense. I would say they forgot to do the engineering during design stage.
