Yea I was thinking the same thing on the mirrors. The spoon/carbon 6 style look so much better IMO. But everyone's preferences are different though. Look forward to seeing this finished.

The mirrors actually look huge in the pics but it is actually not bulky in person. If you look at your nsx and see the size of that triangle pc at the lower A pillar to the pic itll give an idea of size.
Appreciate the kind words!

The Gruppe-M Aero Mirrors will actually fit this build better IMHO. They look very large and bulky as they are close ups. Carbon 6 Mirrors would look the same. Here is a slightly different view that may put things into perspective.
This is one CRAZY build. I can't wait to see the finishing of it.
They do look better in that picture, I just figured they would be either door mounted or window mounted, not both, but hey, who am I to say anything? this thing is going to kick a$$ when finished

I can't wait also! =) it's going be awesome Kawabunga Dude hahaha.
Worked the back portion and resin filled the gaps after reinforcing with 8oz fiberglass.
Back to their glory and spot on with fitment and gap. Fenders are not completed yet as they will have additional work done to work with offsets picked for the wheels and OEM fender liners.
Keep Posted =)
Looking good!

Because I ordered my GTOne Dry Carbon Hood and Trunk first. It took a very long time for them to be completed and at one point I thought that the money I spent was lost. Since I could not obtain information on these parts, I went ahead and ordered a DownForce Hood and Trunk. As luck would have it, the DF parts arrive and bam, the GTOne parts arrive very shortly thereafter. That is how it goes I guess. You will notice that I have a few duplicates and that is because I bought one thing and went a different direction later.
You should sell them
Looking forward the more updates.
LOL,
No, I'll be keeping them since I never know when they might be needed.
Got some great news from Detlef (Procar)! The air duct is ready to go and being shipped. Folks, if you haven't worked with Detlef, he's great! He's been very helpful from start to finish and we all know his carbon parts are top notch. See for yourself!
Thanks Detlef!
Thanks Detlef!
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm quite sure that you will like the Procar NSX-R airduct.
That part is for european NSX only, to cover the Euro smile.
Baller status achieved..... Just saying. Awesome build.
Thanks! I will say though, the only thing that is mine in Detlef's picture is the NSX-R Air Duct.

My helpful aid arrived, no more compressor noise and additional electricity used.
With all the equipment I have to do tasks I should kick myself pretty hard for not ordering this awhile ago. Save my electric bill and it's quiet (VERY)
Mirka Electric DA sander. This isn't your go to Sears or Harbor Freight and buy a DA sander and say it does the same type. Top quality, brushless motor, speed settings by touch and controls buttons. Also the vacuum connection and feeder is a major plus for a clean work area. Chris's car will get plenty of play time with. Super awesome.
Making a cameo!!! Pretending to work =) on this LBBP mega wheel structure.
Checking the additional A arm brake caliper wing tip rudder for his tire pressure timing, going to be a discontinued item so before I tell Chris he isn't done spending I better check the diagphram plate that connects the water tube to the seat belt modification link. Gotta be on point.
