The driver's side will be bolted on but the bolts will be small and not visible from the outside. The right side is molded into the door and rocker panel for one big ass piece and will also be held with one hidden bolt, one hood pin and one dzus fastener. This may change as I screw around with the best way to do things.

You dont have to cross drill the rotors (I dont like it...but you AutoX...not road race) Surface area shouldnt be an issue for you. The holes in the flat surface work very well (the transition part from lug holes to pad surface) Not sure yoif you understand which part I'm talking about.

Roger will sell the targa bar separate. Call him and ask him..tell him Brad sent you. You dont need the inside piece he sells... just the outer targa bar itself. He sells a insert that looks just like the insides of the targa bar.

Brad,
You're talking about the drilling into the "hat"?
If the rotor was laying flat on the ground this would be the near verticle sides of the hat, right? Not the flat disk section.

The rear q-panels I got include the outer half of the sailpanel, but I don't think it useable as such if you completely cut off the stock targabar...

URY,
Go for Dzus fastners all the way. It'll make working on the car at the track much easier/faster

cheers,

Jeroen

Jeroen,
I'm not a big fan of Dzus fasteners. The get abused and look like crap in no time. I'm going to try to pin or thru bolt things and make them all hidden, but easy to get to.

I have to go back and sand some more now,
Thank you,
Paul

Mike,
I have a mold for the passenger door and I'll be making one for the drive's door in a week or so. The front fenders and hood were bought. I'll also be making molds for the rear fenders but not right now.
