Thanks guys.

I forget the actual dimensions of the cuts but even shaving a little off made a big difference right away. We altered the drip rail area to soften the shape of side window and make the roof look a little less flat. The intent was to create a more refined and aggressive look to the profile of roof and side glass. Another major mod is that we tunneled out the rear deck so there's a pass through on the rear spoiler. This resulted in a more sculpted rear roof but from the side it appears unchanged.

The whole rear of the car and the grill needed some massaging and detail work to achieve a more balanced and modern look. There's a lot of machined parts and fine details that'll hopefully tie the car together and reinforce the contemporary, industrial theme we were going for.

I see a little bit of an Australian Falcon look to the 1/4 panel after the mods. Very cool project. People are going to like it, but won;t be able to figure out what you did to it. Looking forward to seeing it finished.
