Yep --- I remind my wife frequently that I don't smoke, I don't drink, and I don't mess around, and I dress like a slob (car t-shirts and blue jeans, so no clothing costs).... if she wants to find me - just come out to the shed.... so if cars are my only "issue" she's good with that!

Make a mold from it and build it out of CF - then you could just carry it!

Car looks awesome Matt, incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. Congrats!

Those wheels are absolutely amazing.

I don't think I posted this pic before, but it might be interesting to some. These are the polished CNC'd clear plastic parts for the gas cap and horn button before they were back painted.

This shows how Steve and the boys narrowed down the front brake cooling duct by making an oval shaped steel tube that the hose connects to to allow for tire clearance. The rest of the hose that goes to my collector bezels wasn't in place at time of this shot.
