Thanks for all the support guys. I'm loving the build right now. For a wile it was getting rather monotonous.
A small update: I just got in a short shifter. I'm very pleased that my weighted Greddy knob fits perfectly.

Thanks. It's a PPG 1stage paint. I had planned originally that I would do a base clear but this worked out just as well for my purposes. However, I am still thinking about clearing over it next spring/summer as you don't get that deep shine from a 1stage.

You could make it glossy, you just need to properly wetsand and buff it out.

Very true, I def. need to colorsand and buff. If I like the sheen after that, I won't go ahead with the clear.

I've been quite busy the last couple weeks with sermon prep and teaching, so not too much has been accomplished. A small update is that I got my front and rear bumpers mounted as they were just hanging there in the pics.

DUDE! love love love the stance, wheels look great and the matching VC is a perfect idea. I almost think that you should finish your spoiler off in mat or satin black... it looks killer good work!

Hey, thanks guys. I actually want to get 195 45 16's for the front rather than the 205 40 16's. I haven't found that size avalable in Toyo proxies yet tho....
