do you plan to color the hood or just leave it as it is?
Thanks for posting your comment !!! I like the fact that even when you do not like anything you made your comment in a proper and non-offensive way. I got respect for people like you.

The hood stays like that for now...

Is ok. that was asked before and my response was:

VeilSide all around... rear, sides n front... including the spoiler.. all VeilSide

I think the car is clean... one of the nicest I have seen yet. Its harder to make a roadster look nice then a coupe. The only things I would not do it it were my car would be the front bumper and the lambo doors. Just not my style but to each their own. Its still a clean car.

Actually I think is pretty easy... the roadster looks way better from factory than the coupe... so making it look better takes no effort... (my opinion)

I had both of them (coupe n ZR) at the same time and the roadster has a huge advantage over the coupe...the advantage is simple... put the top down... the rest is pretty much the same...

Drive down by the beach with a coupe and drive the same path with the roadster... you will experience that yourself...

that is just my opinion...

Looks matter so little to me with the roadster. Nothing compares to driving along the coast when it is 70 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. You can smell the salty water and feel the wind and the sun. It's euphoric.

I don't think I'll ever be able to buy another coupe again.

Even more so when you drive down the beach with several DB Z's - coupes and roadster ... that was fun!

Too bad that's Florida and not Cali. I'd love to head down there. I'm only a couple hours north.

Hey dawg that's a nice a$$ Z. I gotta tell you though, I'm not into the lambo doors for a number of reasons. But hey, I do respect the ride and the dedication it takes to make it work. Nice ride for sure.....I hate the doors, but I can't hate on an overall great looking ride. Keep doin' it!!

Thanks man... I appreciate the comment...

I can not stress enough the fact the LSD doors enables you to use the door normally. I do not have to put the door up unless I want to... just like the top, I don't have to put it up unless i want to...

Yeah my boy has them on his old school chevy. He only throws them up when he wants to show off, otherwise he opens them regular. Monitor your shocks, I heard they like to go bad and your doors will sag.
