havent really had time to mess with the car in the past few weeks but managed to get the exhaust and spoiler finished.

going to try to finish the sheet metal work inside the car next weekend then it will be coming back to my house to get the wiring / plumbing done and tie up a few loose ends!

I'd just keep the stock door panels, They only weigh like 3lbs each.

got rid of all stock interior a long time ago. the inside of the doors will have the sheet metal work as well. weight isnt a factor with this car ha

yes all red bars are custom. we bent them and welded them all ourselves. and yes the protype spoiler we made is plexi. the mounts are solid aluminum. might switch it up later on if the plexi isnt strong enough.
