Car is nearly done. Very excited to get it on the road.
So did you swap to pre-964 glass/trim/seals for the front and rear windshields? I ask because I'm wanting to do something similar—change the black anodized trim to just polished aluminum for that "chrome" trim look.

Correct. Mine are polished aluminum and I prefer that look.

Aha! Do you happen to know the part numbers you used?
I've been having some trouble figuring out which front glass version, which rear glass version, and which trim to choose:

Here's a picture from the PET for the '87-'89 cars, showing like ten different front glass versions (and there are two different trim versions as well—so cray)
^--- I think the correct glass is one of the first two "1's"
I took a trip up to Rothsport to drive it for the first time today! Incredible car. More pics when I get it back to Texas. Having a race driver (Jeff) drive this thing in the rain was quite the experience.
