My favorite part? The subtle but distinctive silver hood crest. Gotta love it.

I think the car would look even better if the pictures were taken on a cloudy day,
or at night... The shadows amplify the lines of what are normally small gaps (like
in the first picture where the hood meets the bumper).

So is it finished? What more can you do to it?

@Blink, I can't wait for that 3.4L. I'm hoping to have it all done by July/August. Your right I need to replace my driver side floormat. Stupid things wears out way too quickly. I think it was replaced less than a year ago.

@dcporsche, I really need to get it washed. I just wanted to get some pictures up to show you guys.

@Jeph, Not really sure what more I can do, but I'll never say its done. The next big thing is the motor swap. After that its all just minor stuff.

@Grizz, It been cloudy here..................................ONCE before.

I like the Euro bumper alot.

When I had my bumper changed out, by the time the message to leave the bumperettes got to the shop the bumper already had the holes in it. Leaving off the bumperettes creates such a clean look.

You have a beautiful car.
Where did you find that shift knob?

i agree, very well done.
the only thing that i 'dont like' is the humps, i think that if theres a way to integrate, or mold them in...or something, so that they dont look just put on there...but everything else looks great man.
