some progress on my car ... it took ages for the headliner to get in, now finally my lexan windows arrived .... i got my one-piece door glass now in ...
ignore the tape and that moldings and the right side windows are missing . personally i think the windows match great with the grille and it all looks kinda brutal .....
what do you guys think ? windows too dark for the color ?
I was wondering how to do things with the exhaust tail pipes. Before restoration I had two pipes ending under the rear bumper and was facing problems with the chrome changing color / darken to the point where I had trouble polishing it again.
I could now just add two 45° pipes facing downwards, quick and easy , but Exhaust fumes will stay under the car and might mess up my nice finishing. Plus they might get into the cabin easier.
If I come out straight and then up, ending in the middle under the bumper with two pipes it will look cool, but I will additionally heat up fuel tank, filter, pump, plus I have interference with the diff.
I was thinking to go out and route the pipes next to the tank (left and right), but the pipes might be seen from the side and though stainless stell might look ugly (simulated quick and dirty on one pic wouldnt look like that of course)
I could also just make a 90 on each side and end up in front of the rear tire but that seems outdated.
I am just intereted if anyone comes up with a nice idea .. thx.
Dang, Sick Nova. Im really liking the one piece side windows. Ive been planning that mod for years now. Its good to see one done. I definately like the color also! That thing should be sweet on the autobahn.
