Re: Current pics
Panel fit and gaps are almost as good as they're going to get. These duraflex fenders are **** but i'll live with them for now.
As for the b piller line I agree to an extent. The transition just above the door is a bit hard on the eye but I like the overall split in the color. Gives her a higher "hip" if you get my meaning. Maybe i'll change it to be more rounded off at the door at some point. Easily done - it's all vinyl.

Re: Current pics
Still me. I haven't left per-se. Just not as active. The splitters unfortunatly didn't take off like I had hoped. So my car will have to remain one of a kind after all.

Re: Current pics
good to see youre stil kicking, appalled that i missed such a transformation of that car. if you wanna get in the game of playing with splitters for a bird i will surely be a test dummy based on how awesome these look.

Re: Current pics
The first thing was subframe connectors. I'm running 2 sets, the UMI outers AND the Alston (sp?) inners. I wouldn't dare dream of this without them. The t-top bar was cut out and the head liner/weather stripping was modified accordingly. As for the removable top, I used the roof off a donor hard-top car, modified it to fit the opening, and used the brackets that came on the t-tops. I made a stiffer inner structure for the roof panel so it wouldn't be so flimsy out of 1/4" ABS to save weight. It's really as simple as that. I am planning on taking pics of the roof panel to post (as soon as I'm done with all my other projects).
