I think they are hoping to sell all the pieces for less than 4K including trunk lid and front and rear bumpers. Stuff looked nice. Top of the fenders was wavy but Rick said they were straight but everyone at the shows keeps tapping on them. Supposed to take 200 lbs off the car.

Rerminds me of the AC Corbra days, very cool, light weight, but don't touch it. Very sensitive to touch, leaning, pressing, fender covers, any thing you might do to work on a car...
But very cool. Camaro guys get all the cool parts.

This would be my concern. If they dent up from people tapping on them then how will the hold up in the real world?

If you had them you would have to not tell anyone or they would want to tap on them. Then someone would lean against a fender and "oops".

Other than that those panels are VERY cool.

I assume they are stamped as there are no wheel or work marks on them. Inner frame aluminum also? I would think you would have to run cage with forward struts to take stress off fenders??

Nice pieces! Not bad price considering what you are getting. How was fit panel to panel? Edges?

Cheaper than NOS stuff, if you can find it....
