Finally got these bonded and will have to test fit after I get back from Seattle this next week. We did a test tit on the substructure to assure everything alligns, just some trimming and finishing to go.

We are doing the clear roof 1st, but doable.
Have a lot of irons in the fire with these, the bumper tops, the valances, and front end kits and flared bits.

You are going to see a lot of new resin based products coming from us shortly.

@ConeDodger Absolutely! I've long said that if you can buy it vs make it, that's the way to go. It just happens that I can't buy a lot of the bits I happen to want, so...

We did test fits on the car this last week. We are pulling one with headlight delete this week. We are working out the the cutting and finishing for these so they fit correctly. More pics soon.

Still following, I need it all. Deleted headlight front led and a rear led, front and rear bumpers and valence's. Then I can start thinking about fenders and rockers.
I have cash and not asking about the price just tell me about the bottom line.
I'll probably want Carbon later.

Mark, I think I saw the answer to my question but please confirm.....since these are FG (or even the CF version), these will require the corner pins near the headlights in addition to the center stock latch, correct?

Actually we are setting these up to not require pins, however they look sharp. We will probably do a run of the pins and plates. It will require a lower tension spring that we are also working on for the front trunk.
We will offer just the skins for those that want to use pins or dzus screws to attach too. Just like Sheridan did when he made them. The internal support structure is something we are making to make mount like the stock lids. More to come this week.

I'd be interested in a fiberglass rear deck lid. Depending upon final cost. Thanks, Kevin
