Those do look really nice. They make your engine bay pop, imho.

Thank you! I think it adds some good contrast to the sea of black😀 It was hard finding any good pics of these inners anywhere. Especially any side by side photos of the Anvil carbon deep tubs vs the factory pieces so I thought I'd post up some pics...

Factory vs Anvil...

Wow- those inners are awesome! Thanks for the pics, they're really helpful as I've been debating about getting a set myself.

How is the fit ?? Trimming required ?? Holes line up etc ?? Thx.

The fit's not bad. It's probably not much worse then repro parts but then again, you don't buy these parts expecting not to have to put forth some effort. The only holes you have to drill are the inner fender support brace holes and the holes for bolting it to the core support. I'd honestly rather they didn't drill any holes, especially the ones on top where it attaches to the inner structure of the front fenders. I did had to shave a little off the area where the rear of the passenger upper control arm pivots but otherwise I'm happy. I got the ECM and heater/AC lines secured and ready to mount the front fender.

I also ordered some new door hinges and latch mechanisms today as I've noticed the door hinges have some play and they've been re-bushed enough times I wanna start fresh (plus they're missing the detent arm and springs so it's a PITA the work on it with the doors open). I'll probably wait til I get those parts in this week to hang the front fender back on and at least save myself some time on one side. Either way, gotta have it back together for the Driveautox event at NCM this weekend.

Here's a good shot the shows the shape of the inners...
