New update! The firewall has been finished and sprayed. I waited till the last minute to do this which turned out great as DSE decided to market a weld in panel for second gen. firewalls. Here it is in place, fit and qaulity were excellent as always with DSE. I think the semi-circle area for the front down bar hit perfect considering we put the bar in over a year before this panel was marketed or made.

I purchased a set of billet trunk hinges from Eddie Motorsports. They come bare aluminum finish, so we used them this way for pre-fit and mock-up. After dis-assembly I carried these along with my DSE battery hold down to a local business I use and had them black hard coat annodized. I think they came out nice.

The exhaust is back from being ceramic coated along with the sub-frame and rear housing which had to be re-powdercoated. After welding the down bars to the front along with tie down brackets the front needed to be re-done. The rear housing was also modified for the sway bar so it also needed re-coating.

I'll have some fresh update pics by the weekend. This will be something new compared with the last year, fast progress!

P.S. You can get up off of the floor now Scottie!! LOL

That's because the car finally got out of Interior-Jail LOL

I'm up off the floor now!! :faint:

That firewall panel looks great Tommy. That is the first one I have seen installed and painted.

Is it just me or is the foot of that lift right at the very edge of dropping your car? Passenger side looks pretty close.

Man just spent the last hour going through this whole thread, WOW is all I can say. Very nice can wait to see this one finished :hail: Oh and Scott has alot of room in the garage to fall and not hit anything so see if you can make him fall again :lol: :P

Color finally goes on Friday. I'm waitng till middle of next week to go see it and take pics. Can't wait!
