Nice work the car looks fantastic!
Orange is a great choice of colour for a special..
Only a personal perspective, but on an orange car the "big reds" don't quite work for me, I think they would look great matched to the black mirrors, as long as the new owner is happy!

probably the only person/shop that could put that in writing...and not have it sound pompus or arrogant.
Lottery winning build IMHO. Soon as my numbers come in, I'll call. Note...won't be a Speedster though...but a GT2 tribute in that color.

The main orange part looks incredible though!
The car has a few things going on, red calipers, black mirrors/door handles and silver contrast to the bumper vents... The "extras" just leapt out of the picture.
I would like to add, I am typing this wearing Jeans and a black T shirt, I have absolutely no idea about colours in the real world!

What color is planned for the wheel centers?
Black would work well with the mirrors

This build is intended to be a small diversion from the normal, hence we are trying things on the car that may or may not work well, like the black mirrors and door handles. This statement will also be true for the interior trim where again some things might look awesome, others might be a train crash. The truth is that we just won't know until it all comes together, so that's our plan: try everything and keep the bits that work. That said, it's definitely staying orange as we love the colour already.

I love it all*!!! Good job NineMeister team. Can't wait to see what the interior looks like.
*except the silver fog lights... Not really sure how that ties into the overall theme. Perhaps black to match the door handles and mirrors?

Sorry for the lack of updates over the past few weeks only I had to cover for office staff on vacation and did not have the time to run around with the Nikon, however it's back to normal now so please expect the usual service until completion.
The project stalled for a few weeks whilst we were waiting on the delivery of the interior and our new prototype 9m-KW 993 HLS Suspension package. For those of you who do not know the KW product, this is their high-low system which raises the car by 35mm at the touch of a button to clear those pesky speed bumps. Naturally there will be more information on this later once we have the hydraulics installed.

And WOW that speedster looks fantastic!
