Gregg, you missed my point. Never mind. Oh, and don't forget about the sign. If you could make sure it has a provision for a chain so it doesn't get lost this year that'd be great.

Dick sent over some more pictures today. In the email he requested "a can of good gaps" from Doug.

Today we have something that resembles a car:

Gap improvement spray is now a part of the Game Enhancement collection. Before we jump right it to Gap improvement spray lets start with a little Tall Dark and Handsome Spray. After seeing you at Camarillio Autocross you could use a generous application. We can take care of any gap issues at SEMA on the car but the Tall Dark and Handsome spray does not work as fast as the gap improvement spray does.

Car is looking good.

Yes, most everything except the inner fenders are painted.

Also, I'm not sure if I mentioned this earlier, but for those of you with Anvil parts, it's a good idea to heat the parts to 200ish degrees (while not under any stress) for several hours if possible to allow for "post curing" as Tyler said. This is supposed to keep the carbon weave from coming up and being visible after the part is painted.
