Thanks man I appreciate it..

The Subs sound very very good! They are not free air. Pioneer just came out with "slim" subs so you can fit them in tight spots like we have in the roadster. You do not need a huge box of air to make them sound awesome..

Yes I got the whole audio/visual done here in Westchester. If you want more info or if you want to meet up and ride over there just hit me up. PM me if you need anything answered.

That fade on the fender vents is the best effect I've seen to date. Killer - GREAT touch.

The front hood gap seems a little bit wide - have you tried adjusting the hood catch to close it down a bit? I had the same issue on my Buddy Club bumper, but managed to close and even it pretty well across the front with a latch adjustment and a few horseshoe-shaped shims under the bumper beneath the fasteners across the under-edges of the mounting surface.

Shimming was also a simple fitment fine-tune after driving it awhile and the normal body flex of the roadster slightly changes/sets the gaps.

Great looking roadster - congrats!

Hey thanks for the shim idea!!

I was going to mess with the hood latch this weekend...The only issue I am worried about is that the hood already hits my strut bar...But I guess thats the way it will be..

For the strut bar, you can just cut the fiberglass under the hood. I got the TS version, and i have to cut this fiberglass that hit the bar. I use a dremel to do that, cutting 3 squares 3cms*3cms

Def need the BBK...Any sponsors out there want to give one up??? I hit the show circuits!! LOL

As far as assuming the slowness of the car...I do not think she is slow I was quick before and it is quick now..The added weight for the audio I doubt will slow me down that much....
