Guys Im debating on what hood pins to use. Should I run the Aerocatch, OR I was thinking hood pins with the wire like on old mustangs would look good with my build. Fender Flares with exposed bolts, Spoiler..... You know what I mean?????? Advice is wanted.

I saw go with the hood pins with the wire since you want to keep that exposed, industrial look...the Aerocatch ones are more discrete.

Fender Flares CAME TODAY!!!!! Its gunna look good. Luckily. I am waiting on about 6 more parts then shes off to the shop. Interior is going to either hydrodipping or the carbon fiber element. Ten everything goes off to the interior shop. Everything goes into the car with new audio and were good to go on the road.

I know right. But as I was doing a mock up to the car, tape doesnt stick to pasti dip. Makes it hard. Ill just have to trust them, then measure for how large of spacers I need..... Im still a few months away from being finished, but each month brings me closer. I hope July I sure do......

I've got a slot in the end of February for the shop to install my clutch, check the belts, recharge my ac, and do the widebody. I may have to push it off a bit but we will see. Also, lots of my parts are off to carbon creations to get wrapped.

Shop called and asked me to bring my car in around the beginning of March. I said that it would be fine, considering the amount of work they will be doing. Also my pieces going to the carbon fiber shop will go out in two weeks time. Should have the car back middle may, early June. I know seems like a long time but I really don't need it until then because of everything. I ink it will be ready at the end of show season.... Interior will be dune in August and the car on the road in September October... Around then.....

Okay guys I have spacer questions. As some may know I will be putting on fender flares. Aka doing a cheap widebody.... My wheel specs are 19x10. -10 fronts 19x11 -5 rears I was wondering if I put on 30mm spacers in the rear and 25 fronts that would set me at -35 all around. Should I go with a different setup... Possibly a 30 on the front and a 25 rears..... My tire setup is 245 fronts 275 rears if that helps. Just want it to look good and aggressive.

Also, I have come to the conslusion that I am down for another show season. The time frames keep getting screwed up. I got sent 3 wrong parts so before the car can enter the shop I need the right ones so a few weeks off there. THEN the rear trunk wont be done for a few more months which isnt a real deal breaker but still.... It will be in the shop for 5-8 weeks. I told them take their time because I want non rushed work, and that way I get charged less because I am flexible... After that I go to PSI for a tune, but I will now have to be worked into their schedule as they have a race and a drift team that uses their dyno haha then interior... just piles up. BUT it will be on the road this year. Kinda because if I finish it in October then its a garage queen...... meh.
