First off, the car looks fantastic and the strips look amazing. Love the side view mirrors as well. The flat black window banner did not go unnoticed as well. Just showed my wife a the pictures and she asked if you had the whole car repainted? Did you? The red really looks good in the pics.

The side air intakes were built by me from scratch. I created a male mold/form shaped out of foam then laid fiberglass cloth and resin over the mold many many times until the piece was thick and strong. I then removed the foam via a Dremel drill. Cutting it out from the inside out. Sanded the part down to how you see them now. Flat black rattle can spray paint and done. The most difficult part was attempting to get both parts symmetrical. They're opposites so you can't just make two parts identical in all ways.

Anyway, looks great. Congrats on the changes.
