I appreciate everyone's patience. She's very close now. Just a few last things to sort out, but man does it look stunning in person. I can wait to get the badge on and the splitter mounted. That splitter is going to look SICK! Here are the first pictures of it mounted after paint.

Splitter is finally painted. Should be doing the majority of assembly on Friday. I may actually be driving this thing this weekend!

So...it's finished (for now). We're making one more addition that we can do as a side project. Here's the two teasers pics I'm going to post tonight. I need the weekend to clean the car up (lots of shop dust) and it needs to be driven to get it back at ride height, etc. I also want to take some daylight pics for everyone. Stay tuned for the payoff shots!

Okay...no more waiting. Here's the final pics after the finished install. I'll post the pics after the main detailing soon. These pics really don't do it justice. It really does dramatically change the look of the car. I'm eager for you all to see the pics from it on the road, and fully decked out. In these pics, the tow hook is not installed, nor is the charging port or the canards. Looks good for the time being aye?

A project that finished well.You put in a lot of time,effort, money and
vision into your project. Now what about the rear of the car. Idea's?
Dont say it looks good stock. Your vette does not have balance now.
Your vette has become your design.
Good luck.

The rear is not stock. Forgive the pic...wasn't a very good location or time of day for pics. Even though those taillights are eagle eye's, I just bought a new set. (Not yet installed)
