Thanks guys!! i apprciate that. The Fikse's are actually 19".. The motor has basic bolt on's .... i am picking up all the paper work today so that way I know exactly what was done.

TRG decals would be cool for track days... and yes originally I was talking about my car being the "race car" clone.. not the street car .... the race cars come in ANY color

yo D-E ! i honestly couldn't give you first hand accounts of the the gt2 "look" bumper install since sharkwerks did the install while i was in france. they said it wasn't too bad but was a little hard to fit. if you are looking for perfect then have it finished by your best body guys. i had it finished and painted by departstop (also bought it from them) and while the paint match is good, the finish detail work is average. you can see a few ripples. i am not picky so it's perfect for me . overall a B grade. haven't tracked it yet but will at the end of september. gotta install some mesh cuz the gaping wide ducts are debris magnets. i already have a nickel sized dent in my brand new center radiator arghh!

No side marker lights?
wow that's definitely a head turner. I might consider some dark colored wheels in the future. Is this yellow really this light or is it your camera? But you DEFINITELY need some GT3 seats. (and a silver hood crest).

YEs new seats are coming... along with silver hood crest ( saw that the other day on ebay.. great idea) and rear badge.. The color is a lighter yellow than fly yellow.. called Pastel yellow.. in person it looks SO good.. in pictures.. not so good..

there are so many things I want for this car.. but I will be "somewhat" patient

I have a good friend who owns this company www.statusracing.com so I will be installing these seats and a harness bar real soon. Thinking some carbon kevlar seats to match the yellow.. maybe carbon kevlar interior trim also. kind of like these seats

Not to worry. We are all car freaks here, at least I am. Just busting ***** a little bit is all.

To me a clone is indistinguishable from the original. Your's is a lovely car, for sure, but not altogether convincing.

Enjoy. And don't take any of us, myself in particular, too seriously.

nah man....go all out on that beast. Rennsport rollcage. it has 3 main pieces: the back part, the front part and the cross bars for the doors, all of which can be taken out and put back in depending on application.

that way, u can run carbon fiber doors too
