Looking really good Jim!
Kyle does nice work, looking good Jim..
The quality of the welding work looks top notch, but that's going to be an airflow restriction; I wouldn't be surprised if you saw a significant impact on the dyno at high rpm with this cover.
It would probably be better to fabricate an under-body shield, which covers the entire region from the fuel tank back, and doesn't choke off your air supply like this cover.
Are those K-sport coilovers?
Bump for sneak peek @ 02 version.
Yes...They ride stiffer than most, but I like them a lot.
However, K-Sports customer service sucks.

Did the rear fender liners today since OEM fender liners no longer work on a widebody car. I got tired of rocks hitting the inside top of my fenders and finding small rocks in my trunk.
Not to mention beating everything up in between.
Found some great sheets of pliable plastic .090 thick in 4x8 sheets, which is the same thickness of OEM fender liners, easy to work with and cut.
Will probably do the front fender liners tomorrow.

WHERES THE PAINT?!?!?!?!
I like the new shiny parts though nice job and looks like you had fun over the weekend! Jealous
Getting there Eddie...
I'll be glad to see it painted myself...One major draw back is I'm going to miss being able to patch/repair and rattle can the primer back on.
LOL....yes, it's going to be Doo Doo Red...just to many other area's that are red to change the color without taking the car a part first.
Been there and done that already, not doing it again for awhile, I hope.
You are toooo funny
...are you home now for awhile ?

Have you checked out that one special white pearl on the nsx-r or candy apple red or F40 red? hehe Its pretty nice. I know what you mean about not worrying about the paint.
Can't wait to see it done, I know paint work is very time consuming and a pain in the rear.....:biggrin
I am still in Taiwan....its 1230pm here weds....might not want to come back...hehe

I have always liked White. My GT-5 I painted is white with a pearl over lay on the rear quarters and rear bumper.
My friend & paint supplier made wanted to dazzle me with is eye and mixed me up a one off custom color of battleship Grey with a White Pearl in it he wants me to paint it with. It looked amazing.. when the light reflected off of it, all the lines popped.
I don't know, there's still time to decide. If I change the color at this point, it means having to go back and paint the red area’s I can get to by hand to something that blends better with the Battleship Grey. What a pain in the ass that would be. I’ll never be done with it, I’ve come to the conclusion that done is just an illusion.
When I was at SM a couple of week ago. I tool a rock through my lower front bumper at 110 mph. Got home, patched the hole, sanded it and repainted it with primer, done deal, you can't tell it even happened.
An't going to be so easy when its done…..done...back to that illusion again.

omg that pantera!....jizzed in my pants! :tongue:
But yeah man serious since you track your car paint it doo doo red so if it gets banged up you can just patch it up and not worry about it....it makes sense painting it some color you can just paint again versus a custom one that is hard to match again.....
Dude wish you were here too man....it would be nice to have a drinking buddy or buddies....the people here seem very conservative but looks are deceiving I guess.....
Have one for me brother, let me know when you get home, it's time for me to make a trip out that way to see my Mom.
We'll have one, or two, together and you can tell me about your trip
Bring pictures, and video's if you have them.
Did you wear your Darth Vator suit again ?
