Will do. I'm hoping the paint work will all be put together by this weekend. Then off to do interior lighting and then motor/drivetrain work!

I overlooked those. Those have potential. I'll pm you tomorrow. My computer is at 1% lol.

I have a few other things in the drivetrain and interior to tackle before the big show in March. I'm thinking unless a company is willing to step up with a sponsorship i'm keeping these wheels I have now because no one else has them from what I have seen.

The body shop sent me some updates. They still need to make some changes as they overlooked a few of my requests. Here's a list of what still needs to be done, but here are pics nonetheless!

-Install Shine front and rear lips
-Swap out Grip Tuning Grille Emblem w/ OEM chrysler
-Paint Front Sidemarkers white
-Install 3G Kustomz engine bay kit
-Install painted and shaved intake manifold
-Install Strut front and rear strut bars

Thanks! I'm still waiting on a lot of parts. It will have the metal work similar to this charger (minus the handwork on the metal) in white. However, instead of the 1/2 covers I will be running Billet Technology Polished valve covers and coil packs similar to these shown below:

Will do Dan. I will be installing the rest of the engine bay parts, head/cams, interior lighting swap, and drivetrain pieces in the coming weeks up until the 2nd week of March. That is when the car will be more complete!

Can you convert the auto to a 6-speed? I was wondering the purpose of the Challenger 6-speed mounts.

I definitely don't want a 6 speed in this thing! However, the motor mounts on the 6.1L six speed challenger are much beefier than my oem units. Mine were actually leaking already. Since i'm pulling the heads and everything, i'm going to do the motor mounts at the same time.

The car is finally ready to be picked up tomorrow! I have a few things to button up like getting the exhaust readjusted since it would burn/hit the rear lip now. I'm not sure if I can get a good night of rest tonight!

-Need to install leds and clear side markers
-Readjust exhaust
-Swap out grip tuning emblem for BT oem in anodized black

I love how the door handles were left chrome on the top and bottom. I also left the outer edges of the front and rear bumper trim chrome while most of it was painted.
