Thanks, I am really happy with the way the car come out. Right now I have all rinspeed stuff on the interior. The pedals, ebrake, and shifter. I also did the carnewal silver ringed shift boot, I have the rings for the guages waiting at home also.

I am probably just going to color match the console and paintable parts. I am a "big guy" so not GT3 seats for me. I will probably stay with my sport seats for now and have the seat backs painted too.

I have a personal (Nardi) steering wheel, with Works Bell Quick release hub sitting at home too.

I then need to figure out where to mount the two 5lb nitrous bottles and fit a stereo. Still waiting on things to come through for the stereo.

Are the NO 2 bottles for show or are they going to be hooked up? Any pics of the Rinspeed shifter with the boot, i was looking to get just the boot with the alum ring from Carnewal, but am still undecided on what shift **** to go with...the techart one is nice too.
might be a bit pricey, but some CF interior parts like the air vents, upper and lower consoles in CF with the same candy would look amazing too, not sure if you can get the sport seat backs in CF...
jeez i wish i had the coin to go all out like this on a project!!
can't wait for the photoshoot!

The NO 2 bottles will be hooked up but I wont use them. Just for show really. I would love to get a full CF interior and candy over it, but I too also wish I had the coin to go all out too

Once I get the car back I will do a full shoot including the shift etc.

Picking the car up tonight.

There are a few things left to do on it but Im going to grab it tonight. The only thing I need them to do is to black out the 3rd brake light in the wing to match the tails.

I will be installing the new mufflers and hopefully adjusting the tips way back this weekend.

They did paint the brakes, but not candy. Not sure what color it is exactly right now, I guess I will find out when I get there.

I also have to swap the hood emblem to the cf hood from my stock one.

Here are some pictures of it this afternoon:
