Been following your build on Youtube. Nice work. Now I just need to get motivated to get to work on mine.

Well, I have it "running" so I can move it around on it's own power now but am about to start making it mechanically sound. I'm about to start diving into the rear suspension/brakes first with an update to aluminum arms, Boxster brakes and convert to coilovers. I really dig the carbon bits but doubt I'll be going widebody but can certainly appreciate what you have done.
