Looks nice! Really like the carbon fiber. That had to cost a pretty penny..

Very nice.

May I ask what vendor you picked up the NRG CF Engine cover from?

Thanks all. I bought all of the parts save the caps from B2Auto, my favorite vendor on this site. Everything from them arrives well packed, withing 2 days and their customer service is unparalleled.

The fluid caps were bought through ZEETOYZ. Terry has both sets, ones without the Z logo, and ones with. Also bought my Z dip stick cover through him.

Pretty happy with the turnout, but still more plans soon!

Looks nice. You should get the Evo-R cf hood dampers from thezstore as well.

Just a little more...



CF interior on the doors since my paint was scratching up horribly.





Steering column and gauge pod. I kept the steering wheel silver CF.





CF dampers with Seibon CF OEM HR hood. Aerotech hood pins.



CF side mirrors and I had my door handles painted clear coated black.



Perfect fit.
