Now that is HOT!
The only change I would make is painting the background in the Fuchs Phoenix Red too. Leave the pedals the body color.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Gives me more options when it comes time to paint mine.

The lights are Hella 500's with the mounts welded about 2ish inches inboard. I really like that GT that you posted above.
Shortly I will go take a few pics after that seal goes in.

I thought I had all my cleanup done but here is what I did with the interior

All black corduroy on the dash face and door panels. the speaker pods from Morph were padded and vinyled by myself and was a PITA to get even half right. The few flaws I built in were oriented to the backside of the pods. I had to make the door cores using 1/4 inch outdoor ply and it worked out quite well. The threads on this site were helpful in building those and covering them.
I have yet to decide on door pulls and still have the original armrests in good shape so I may dig em out someday to look.
My question about door pulls, Do the GT/Fiat parts have a good feel to them or do they feel "cheap"?

The audio components that I chose were to keep the dash face uncluttered and mostly hidden from prying eyes. I may need to get some black nylon or something over the subwoofer cone, the speaker store stuff looks like garbage usually. I had to cut away the console to clear the amp just a little, It wasn't original, I built it from the plans on the french site. So the only input is by headphone jack to ipod or whatever. That headphone jack has RCA ouputs on the other side with Y's on each plug to feed all 4 amp inputs.

All told the amp is a 75x4 Alpine with 3&4 bridged to feed 200w to a 4ohm Kicker 8. At more than half volume on the mp3 player it is more than loud enough.

Some different views of the rear flares, as finished as I wanted to get them.

Also shown is the muffler that I made with a chambered muffler from FLAPS and some resonated tips. Behind that is a Patrick MS 4->1 header. Sounds nice with a healthy burble at idle.
