Side body modification. Eliminated the stock "cove" in the door and fender. Made a deeper recess that housed 3 carbon fiber louvers.

Laying out the new body lines

Louvers first fabricated out of aluminum. These will be used as bucks for the carbon fiber panels.

eliminated the stock windshield trim and fabricated a complete new design. The top of the cowl was changed for a smoother transition. The windshield was also trimmed down and leaned back for a mroe aggressive profile.

just wow, I love the way the car sits, and it was a great idea using those sides to fit the louvres, everything about it, just wow, when is the engine going in? I can't wait to see what you have for under the hood!
