Yeah about a page or so back I posted up the design layout for the front of the car and mount supports etc. The splitter will remain on the car when the top comes off.

Lorax: Dude, I think you just gave the biggest compliment ever...btw are you in Georgia? Any chance of swinging by ATL for a GTG before the run?

Guns, I'm almost ashamed to say that I find a gas cap sexy, but that thing is beautiful!! Where did you get it and are they available? Sorry if you've already covered this but I want one. I can't believe that I'm writing about a gas cap! Oh and how much?

Yep Shelby Cobra.
Here's a b4 and after of a Factory-Five we did the paint & body work on. I did the body work and prep and one of the owners did the paint work.

Sorry for the OT, pics ;^)

Yea i was either going to get one of those kits from factory five or a 944. The kits were just way too expensive for me. They were like what $14,000 and thats not including drive train, interior, paint and all that other big stuff.

Default New Pics Wow!

Guns, damn does that cap look sweet! These people are doing a fabulous job with your car. And I am sure when all is said and done, the front will look kick-*** too. Damn, almost everyday with you there is something new. Keep up the fantastic work pal!

Default No more gas cap......

Okay guys...sadly enough this gas cap may be up for sale soon. I've just invested in a 40 gallon, that's right F O U R T Y G A L L O N ATL fuel cell for the GTR. So I'm going to be needing the assembly to get gas into it etc and it will probably be under the rear wing. This is going to be fun!!!
