I’m intrigued by this swap/build…

I’m most interested in reading about driving impressions and performance values… I wonder what the total weight will be and how the car will handle with the current weight distribution.

I hope its road worthy soon. Good luck OP, I look forward to your progress

I thought the same thing for half a second until I remembered... Don't worry about the Brakes right now! That's not important! Get everything together and working the way you want, THEN swap out the brakes.

Remember, projects fail when people bite off more than they can chew. I'm not saying that the brakes will make it "too much" but while thinking costs, etc, holding off on purchasing a BBK is probably a wise choice.

fitment is very good. Your front don't look as wide as your rear tho.. I am guessing that's a TOp secret modified?? Do you have any picture of your front as a straight shot? Nice to see you finally putting everything together. Would definitely like to hear from you about the engine.

Man oh man, it's coming together!
Seriously can't wait to see this done.

Only thing I don't dig are your front fenders... the scoop that sticks out doesn't seem to fit, IMO, but if you like it, keep it [of course].

I say go with a spoiler. However, I don't think an '06 molded spoiler would be enough.

Nice Kel! My vote's for wingless (and again for Aston Martin Tungsten Silver paint), what a build! Do you have any current sound clips of the engine on youtube perhaps? You changed the exhaust setup, yeah? I remember seeing 4 tips (like the Dinan M6 BMW exhuast setup), and loved that look...

Props on the determination, effort, and attention to detail good brother!
