uuummm.....THAT IS SWEET!!!!

Why did you decide to paint the CF???? You mentioned fitment was bad, how much work did you have to put into getting them to fit correctly? How much were they and where can we order them?

I've seen the finished goods in person (albeit in the dark) and it does look great!

Is that REAL CF on your dash or just a stick on kit? If real, where did you get it?

Thanks so much!

Doors in closed position











Doors in open position











Welds to inner frame and door were grinded, body filled, and painted to provide OEM look and finish











Fiberglass GTF panels




Tein Bonnet Dampers




Hood shocks don't fit with the OEM battery/brake fluid covers, or to be more specific the plastic frames that house those covers. The ends of the plastic frame had to be cut in order to allow clearance for the dampers in the closed position. You can see the rubber looming that covers the cut plastic edges in this picture.


I think these are JP Aero sideskirts. On all the cars I've seen them on, the rear portion doesn't sit flush with the quarter panel. I've seen the front not sit flush as well. The solution I've seen so far is some installers put double-sided tape on the inside of the skirt and try to stick it to the car. However, over time, the pressure of the sideskirt trying to pull away as well as particles of dirt that get caught on the edges of the tape eventually nullify the effect of the tape. The mounting angles in the front and rear of the skirt must be adjusted one end at a time, thus sit flush against the fender and quarter panel of the car without the need for tape.





Foglights off and on






The high swinging doors provide a huge opening for ease of in/egress
