Preview of my project......
Nice, but you are the second person that I point out that the front diffuser needs to be mounted higher. In order to do this you need to cut the bottom sides of the front bumper higher. I did this by myself, so I can tell you that you need to cut out about 2 inches.
Looks good man. But that spoiler is not my taste. IMO it looks cheap but of course we all know it is Amuse and nothing Amuse makes is cheap. Cannot wait to see it with the wheels on. Will you be at HIN Austin?
.....why is it necessary ?
Keep the wing, lose the posts. Mount directly to your
hatch with some well placed double side. Scrap the grill
and get an ARC oil cooler down there, or drop some cash
on a high end mesh, powdercoasted black.... I gotta
powder coat my own mesh. ... damn.

Thank you guys for keeping interest on my project. Unfortunately the first body shop that worked on my car, did a terrible job. As a matter of fact I'm in the process of putting all the evidence I have together to proceed legally against those guys. This are a couple of pictures of what the car was looking when i got it, pics are deceiving,

I found another body shop more reputable that works with restoration and show cars and they are now, reworking my entire car, front to back. It's going to be another longtime before I will have my car back. These are some pics of the progress,

Why didn't you have the original shop just fix their crappy job? Never take delivery at night and always on a clear day. You should always take it back if it was done crappy

I gave the first shop 2 1/2 months to fix all the problems I was finding everytime I went to see the progress and I'm not a body men. They kept giving me the run around and I got so upset with them that I just took the car away from them as quick as I could.
