    I started this project a while ago but it’s finally coming together. The hood and vented fenders & trunk are carbon fiber. SoCalRt Bret and SMK HEMI Steve and I did the install over the weekend at Bret's house. We will install the trunk this coming weekend and do the final adjustments the car looks great. Thanks to the guys for their help. Here are a few pics..

    Thanks again everyone...this weekend we will work on the trunk and final fitment. I've got a couple of weeks left to have the car ready for SEMA and I'm still working on a paint scheme. After a few days of driving with the front end on, the looks I get are of pure shock. All of these parts are available from Extreme Dimension for those who asked and sent PM's. I know the look isn't for everyone but she's not done yet.

    Trunk's on and looks awesome....Just have a little more fine tuning with the fit and she'll be perfect..SoCal RT (Bret) and SMK HEMI (Steve) have been a huge help to get this set up to perfection.
