Total of the two boxes weighed a whopping 70 pounds if I ain't mistaking.
Jay needs more weight in the trunk area if anywhere. He spins the tires off the car in any gear, including 6th past 5200 on the rpm. The tires will not hook up... What do you expect at around 900 rwhp...

1J,
Make sure you get rid of that rain guard. They leak like crazy. That roadkill is thick enough to do that opening with. Mine sealed up great. I'd also go ahead and make an access for the fuel pump. Trying to peel that roadkill off later if the pump fails is going to suck..

Oh yeah the other thing concerning the fuel pump cover is that it is missing all together. The cover wasnt even on before I installed the RoadKill. So in the future if he needs to reuse the pump in the tank he will be able too without any problem. He just have to cut it out of the way.

No problem man. Sometimes it helps to have multiple eyes on things. I can't remember how many times I had to go back and redo things. If you do the doors like I did and he ever has to have access he can just cut along the inside line of the metal, it would be easy. If he has any money leftover some MLV on the floor boards and the back wall partition will make a huge difference.

Interior only? Who are you trying to kid? It's going to take nine hundred horses to make this heavy pig turn the tires over with all of that dynomat installed........lol
Just kidding Mark. You're doing one hell of a job on Jay's car. He's very fortunate to have a friend willing to do this type of job. I know you're making some money in the process, but nobody can say that you've rushed it or cut corners just to get through. It looks like you're going above and beyond what anyone could ask of you while doing this make over. I know a lot of us on here wish we had the money to have you redo our cars.

More pictures will be posted later tonight or tomorrow of the progress of the door panel. I brought them to work and have the whole weekend to work on them properly. I am hoping to be able save them. I am concerned with the bottom of the passenger side door and around the door switch. I will liquid nail them, allow them to dry and then dynomat over that for more tensile strength. They should be more sturdy and better supported once I am done.

I made some progress today. The liquid nail stuff is currently drying so I went forward and cleaned and prepped the inside door panels. The driver side door panel is alot better in shape wise so less effort was needed. Once the liquid nail is dry, I will use the RoadKill over that to strengthen it even further. I hope indeed it works out. On the paasenger side door I had to cut and trim some metal pieces, then used the liquid nails to hold in place. This is for the bottom pieces. Once its dry I will apply the RoadKill, then sand and prep these holes until smooth and looks more better. I used the SEM plastic/vinyl prep filler on one place on the driver side door. This stuff is kinda hard to deal with but once dries it is there. I will also sand this down till flush and allow to set for a total 24-48 hours, then I will post more progress of the doors once all complete and back together. The other idea I was going to use was use a thin coat of 100% balck silicone along the bottom of the doors just for even more support of holding them together. I still have to make some brackets for where the armrest on the driver door. I dont have anything here at work that will work currently.
Here are some pictures:

Mark - nice work man .. but lots of work, you are really a very patient man
Jay - you must be a trooper driving that car for 6 hours from SC to AL with that noisy fuel pump. I wonder wether that fuel pump can be controlled by a PWM controller just like my Weldon controller or if it can't be do what I did on my SC, install a stock denso fuel pump for low boost so it is as quiet as stock and let the big pump kick in on higher boost / hp .

Well thanks gerrb. It is indeed patient work but the work will pay off when I finally see Jays face upon delivery. Hopefully he will be by this week to sneak a peek. Pictures is nothing like seeing the real thing.
