O it will not die, I made up the brackets for my water piping I just need high temp couplers and I have 1 leak and think it is all good then. I do need to figure out brakes though, for some reason sometimes my hydro ebrake feels like it is staying locked. IDK, i backed out the adjustment a little bit but need to find out if that worked or not. Also I need to order my duel rake caliper.

Another pic. I got the wing finished up today. Round 1 is next week so I should have video from it. I have to put the cage in by then too so you will see that soon as well. I have to et a bumper hopefully tomorrow as well. No grill though. Too much money. i was mad that i messed mine up.

I need to see some drift hangs bro-ham. Car is coming along nicely. Quick question(s). Are you chunky? If so, what seat are you using? If not, it doesn't matter. But, I ask because I'm tall and wide...think Jon Coffey from teh Green Mile. Looking for a comfortable/functional seat to replace my stocks with. They're fine for driving, but my helmet barely fits. And when I say barely, I mean I have to kind of **** my head towards the sunroof to get that extra inch or so. Otherwise I have a full on Goose from Top Gun situation going on. Anywho, things are looking goooooood.

Well I actually can fit in normal seats but a little tight, I have the OMP seat but they make a wide version. Same price just a little wider. that will probably be your best bet.

Yea the lines are plastidiped. I actually did them last year and it has held up pretty good. I started vinyl wrapping though and i highly recommend that over plastidip. The hood i just did a sand and shoot today with dupont premixed paint from oriellys. does not match but better then silver hood. lol still working out details of the wrap print for the car.
