Picking it up wednesday. They are just finishing some buffing and polishing in a few areas.

I need to get some GOOD angles of this car.

God-Speed · 10-12-2020, 06:05 PM

Can't wait to see it totally finished!!

Zerafian · 10-14-2020, 02:16 PM

Got it home and after 10-15 minutes of fooling around, I got it up the drive way. So it looks like straight into the driveway is the best bet.

Ordered the kit in April and after 6 months, its finally done...well, besides the hood.

*already posted in media section but wanted to update my build thread*

A friend of mine took a few hours and did a shoot with my car. Figured it would be nice to have one before the hood and wrap, as it is now, and then afterwards, early in 2021.

Hood got delivered to the shop today! Only 13 weeks of waiting, not too bad

Ill be getting them to paint it the stock black but leaving the fins, behind the vents, CF. Im not a fan of large sheets of CF. The weave isnt super appealing to me when it covers a large area. I like those HINTS of CF.

Anyways, this should be the last piece Ill put on the exterior, aside from potentially wrapping it next summer.

How was the fitment on the hood? Hopefully not too much adjustment.

Zerafian · 10-02-2020, 12:22 PM

Last piece is getting final prime! And they started painting. Im crossing my fingers for the end of next week, Ill get it back.

Front bumper and spoiler are going into paint and they are testing out the grill mesh I got delivered to them.

given them $4k as of last week. I told them my budget so we'll see how close they get.

Two shop owners with over 50 years experience between them, its not cheap.

Far less than the laughable amount "Magnum Collision" in Marietta Ga. quoted me, $18-20k

It might come to around $8k. I got them to repaint quite a bit of the car and do some custom work, no required mind you, but I wanted it done.

Will be a totally different car after you are done, excited for you!
