Brian,

I bought those same mirrors on ebay about 2 months ago. Alot more compact than the C5. Glad to see what they will look like installed. Thanks

Now was the insatll easy? Did you just trim the bases of the mirrors to match the door? How did you trim them, or what with, to get it to match the door?

Default flush mount windows

Brian,
Could you elaborate on how you flush mounted the window and where you got the seals?

Thanks,
Michael

Wow. That looks really nice. I love the stance, the way the firewall was done, mirrors, flush mount glass... the list goes on and on... Great work, man. I was also interested in how to flush the glass, and where you got those seals... I've been tossing this idea around for awhile, but I'm just not to that point yet. Awesome car, man.

Did you have to modify the base to get it to fit? I saw a Lesabre on the highway tonight and it looks (at 60mph at least) like the mounting surface on the Camaro is a lot closer to vertical than on the Buick.

Ya mind snapping a close up of the mounting area?

Hello Brian!!

What a privilege to "meet" you. I have been huge fan of Johns nova and think hes front suspension is one of the best i have ever seen. Those billet components really gave me a punch for my own project. So it was you who machined them!!!! !!!

Could you show your billet stuff more? Its really intresting!!

Thanks!!!

Cool

I am also a big fan of IIMuch and never made the connection that you were the Brian that machined the parts for JP.

Keep the updates coming I love to see this stuff.

I concur the stance of your car is killer.
