no, i did not mean anything bad!!! i know that if 10 people built 10 cars, they would all be different. that is what makes it so great!!

i did think about a black top, but there are alreay a few with it, so i just stuck with red.

i wish i could have got done with the exhaust 100%, but i had to order some tips, and they came in, but i dont have time to weld them on before i leave.

oh well, next time

btw, its not perfect. it has a few flaws that we did not catch until it was painted. ill point them out latter. they are small, and if you were not looking, you would not see most of them, but they are there.

thanks for all the feedback!!

i knew when i built this car that it would not be perfect in everyones eyes.

i really dont want a blinging set of wheels. if the ones i had were the same offset, and 5 spoke, that would be better for me, but i am happy with these for now.

the black ht might look cool, but the whole black top, black hood, and black frunk, is just played out imo.

just remember, this is a race car for me. it is not a show car, or a garage or trailer queen. it is going to get chipped up, banged up a little (cones), and scuffed up.

i made the fg very thick where cones could hit it to keep it stress crack free.

the funny thing is, the coolest things that i like on it are, gregs gauge pod, and serinas door seals. they just look sooo cool!!

all i can say is, you should see it, hear it, and feel its power, in person!![/b]

Paul, let's see some shots from behind! It looks amazing though![/b]
i have to wait till i get my tips welded on. it just has 2 pipes sticking out right now, that is why i didnt take any from the back yet.
 
Pimpin'. It's honestly not the way I would have gone, but it's very nice. I'm sure if I saw it in person I would love it.


BTW, I'm also getting a chuckle out of the fact that Paul probably just spent more time and money on a Spyder than this site has ever seen, and the first thing we say is "buy new wheels!". IMO, the wheels are dope, and even if they weren't, just enjoy them for awhile. It's time to kick back and have a drink.

+1 I like the wheels on it personally.
 
Since, per Paul himself, the car looks even better in person let’s vote that Paul accompanies the flag all the way through the relay! We could all sign his hood as he goes by.
 
Looks very good paul, im very envious of your skills and ambition. I could have never even fathomed doing this sort of thing to the kit when it was on my car!! Its trully a piece of art. Thanks for your help as well paul, i still owe you, remember shoot me your paypal!!
