Found this pic on another thread about the wing, it's off the APR site.

There's some others that show the hatch, but this is the best one.

mine is being made right now- so i guess i can give a better description.. if only james could come online and post ! :P

i wont have the luxury of going lexan windows.. i'll try to see if my stock glass will still fit- i dont want to go 'full race car' just yet-..

i might have to rethink how i'm going to mount my wing too-

i dropped off a stock aluminum hood last week along with my car, the hood you see with the white Axis car just has simple cut out vents... i wanted to do reverse louvers, so it can actually suck out air from behind the radiator instead of just open venting..

i'll have more of a description later this week...

(i got smart filtered at work. boo hoo. so i can only update the forums around 6pm PST.. )

Chebosto,

Your car is beautiful.

i might have to rethink how i'm going to mount my wing too-

You arent putting one of those giant GT wings with metal scafolding for mounts are you?

I see your car with something like the veilside V2 spoiler.
