Even with the contours in it from the pics posted, it looks very boxy relative to that very curvy TA front end of IMO. But like you said, reserving judgment til completion is probably a good idea.

That gun metal center is going to go great with that Cyber grey paint job.

I am going with their Pro Lite in a 3 piece which will built to DSE specs. 18X10 with a 6 1/8" backspace for the front and 19X12 with a 5.5" backspace for the rear.

Since they don't have a picture on their website yet of the 3 piece Pro Lite's, here is a quick view of what they look like. I am going with a semi-gloss black on the inner and outer barrels and a gloss gunmetal finish on the center section. The perimeter bolts on my wheels will also be semi-gloss black to match the barrels.

Hey Greg, I'm glad I was able to help you out. Thanks for the nice comment!

Coming along nicely, Greg!

Greg, the front end is looking awesome. What are your plans for the splitter? What materials? Color? Integrated into the OEM wheel flares? Will you incorporate turn buckles? If I missed it I apologize but your design has me very intrigued as we are working on a splitter for our 73 TA and I love checking in on your build to see the progress you are making. :thumbsup:

Looking good Greg. Good choice on the wheels.

plate came out nice...going to look killer with the inserts in it.

Loving that rear treatment! The tank set-up rocks too, just, how do you check and fill it under the fender?

Hey Greg - I love the ideas and thought that is going into this car. On the tank fill, Petersen makes a tank with an angled spout/cap which would give you some clearance from the top of the fender if you moved the tank inward just a bit. Doesn't look like it would clear from where it sits now.

On that note, will the tank even clear the fenders? Looks like it sits a bit farther out from the pics.

:cheers:
