Just sayin'. Food for thought. Operators are standing by.

Bitchin' those are very bold sir, perhaps too bold for anyone without blue hair. Still, I like them. Only problem is those would sort of stick out, and my car is about being a little over the top - albeit in the most understated way possible. Besides, the ones we made could be functional, although I sort of gave up on making them work after I realized the cooling ducts would have to be routed through the inside of the car to get behind the 335 tires.

Any other parts you're planning on? Maybe a hood with vents on either side of the cowl?

Update: More progress from the end of last week/weekend. After pulling out more of the interior my usefulness is approaching its end. Luckily though, Dick is ready to fit the quarter, and soon it is off to the paint shop. In fact, someone has already been busy prepping parts...

and of course, your daily dose of carbon fiber:

no...!? I haven't heard anything from them yet. On the good-guys site it says the winner is announced Friday. Not sure when they let me know, maybe I just have to go to the website. Dick made sure to send pictures over to Kyle to let him know we will be ready if we have to be. Oh the anticipation of not knowing.
