Thanks! As for the Drive Junky, to be honest I have not seen it on my car yet in person. I need to get to shop and check it out soon, working at UPS the last 2 months is pretty busy so no time off allowed. But I did see the system at SEMA and meet Zach the owner, it is a great piece from looking it over at the show and Paul said it is really nice also. One major thing I like about it is that there are no spacers in the kit when bolting it all up and you can unbolt any single component for any reason without having to remove any other part of the drive system. I hope I won't have to be unbolting any though!! LOL
The close out panel idea I "stole" from Jay that did the blue 69 awhile back. And it was really easy, I just told Paul "hey I want this" and poof it was done!

Usually, on many cars, you'll notice that lower 1/3 of the car is a tad lighter in color due to the lack of attention.
Dutchboys did a amazing job and are leaving nothing undone any where.

Man i love that color..... Even more now that it looks soooo good and slick on your car!!! Seriously, WOW!!!

The rest just matches, up to snuff.

Are those straps the way the shock reservoirs are held or if your missing the billet "caps" on the motor side? Never seen em with straps and a little unsure of the straps.... I like em, just not used to them i guess (?). Oh well... :-)

Hey, about that front drive kit. It looks on driver side it would clar an "up and forward Stainless Works turbo header? I have a hard time getting good perspective for the pass side and i see that upright standing canister (?) behind the a/c compressor that migh be in the way of the header if one was to mount it with that system? If you could grab a pic of that space and clearance or just tell me what you think of the space around to clear a set of something similar to feed a turbo ('s).

Thanks!!! ...and VERY nice and clean set up.

Any "road worthy" date set?

Lead.
Thanks! I will get you some better pics of the R\H side and pm you with details, and yes Fathom Green!
