Mike, I got your pm about the nav piece. Will do. Here's something thats getting shipped to you! Put the final touches on it tonite. Again this will be a back and forth probably until it fits. Although this is a little more adaptable in the install department. ;-) See if you can guess what it is.

No CF rear hatch? ....Would save you a few GOOD extra pounds. I guess you can always componsate with extra boost. I am sure you thought of this...just a reminder!

I am currently looking for someone to make me a dry carbon one on a sponsorship deal. I have the lexan rear window already too. If I can't find anybody I guess I will go with the Seibon.

...Good choice on the dry carbon and lexan window. Keep in mind that lexan tends to blur with wear/age/debri so try and stay away from the front windshield if you have it in mind.

Wow! Awesome Setup!

Quick aside: Where'd you find those mounts to hang the wheels/tires on the wall? I've been looking for something just like that that can take the weight of a tire/wheel combo or two.

Thanks!

I have a website for that one too, but its under construction as is the car. The Chevelle is in Huntington right now, but is coming back with me once I drop my Z back off to you. Once here it gets an Air Ride suspension kit and a Baer big brake kit! It is going to get a full restoration here pretty soon too with an engine swap. I am debating between the LS7 found in the new Z06 Vettes or the Banks Power twin turbo small block....Or maybe a RamJet 502 with a Procharger...
