Alright guys its early and the skies are blue. Hoping it stays this way and will get out and take some better pics and have them up this afternoon

I agree with the carbon fiber grill and already emailed Steve to see if he can get me one. Anybody have one for sale?

Thanks again for all the nice comments

wow, looks great~ i love that hood and the fenders are great on that car.. as everyone else said, the grille would look a lot better in black, would flow with the lines painted on the hood.... that's a clean paint job too! great job

The car looks great. The grille will definately be better painted black, or if you can match the CF weave to the hood it would look even better in CF.

The color some people have asked is CRYSTAL SILVER PEARL...The base coat was Brilliant silver with the crystal silver pearl to follow. 3 coats of paint with 8 coats of clear but will be about 6 once we cut it down and smooth it to make it even Remember also I have new headlights and will not be putting the chrome ring around the new ones. That was when I was sporting the chrome look...
