Some random shots here and there, engine bay and the car...the first one is really the first pic I've got of the car. Already lowered by then but the rest is stock.
And then some other things....interior is still in progress but the dash is back in now finally! Need to wire up the tach and get my cluster back in also...got a few other interior pieces I need to finish up as well.
Engine bay...going to polish the valve cover and I am getting all my hoses, etc replaced with steel braided one. Going with black couplers, think that should set it off decent.
Exterior...well, a few things here and there. Nothing huge as of now. Black corners and paint the headlight housing black too. Hopefully this fall I can get the trunk/door handles shaved too...just have to see I guess if I have time or not?
Also got my system together finally and that will be going in soon. 7 inch flip screen, 2 10" subs, replacing speakers, etc. Got to get the box done and then paint it to match the interior.
Anyway, you get the idea I think...comments, suggestions, etc welcome and thanks for looking.
I'll make these small so click to see the bigger image.
Eh...old man with a Corvette now...it was bound to happen sooner rather than later right?

your interior looks incredible
Thanks DJ...if I was there...we'd be having a blast everyday!!

whats the wing for? The wing is a traction device, so it makes sence to put it on the trunk of a front wheel drive vehical. Keep the 4cyl under wraps why don't you!
Other than that, your car looks great, keep it up! The wheels look great with the hood, and what jerseykid said-

Yeah, yeah...I know...I catch more crap about my wing than anything! Sorry, I like the look and believe it or not...when running a 100 plus on the autobahn (I'm in Germany) it actaully works rather well for a little extra down force on the rear end!
Feels a little more stable!

autobahn, that could explain it! You actually use it. Holy crap!
Here in the us, most people just put on wings and dont go over 70, so theres no use hor them here. Sry bout that.

I had wiped it down with a cloth to take a pic (yeah, stupid I know!)...it's been buffed and polished since then! It's nice and smooth now! Ever heard of ZAINO? Best freak'n polish and wax ever!!
Once it's spring time and I get the system installed and all...I'll take more pics. Just a sample here of some progress and a few plans.
Thanks!

The gauges in these pics are an overlay made by Independent Style & Performance (ISP)....he's one the web and can pretty much make anything you want!

The seats are Corbeau A2s recovered to match the original graphite interior. I like the look better when everything matches! Seats are out now though and getting another set redone...

Thanks!
The other questions about the interior...I used high build primer to fill the texture in and then sanded everything down to a nice smooth finish. I have a little over 100 hours in it as of now and still got things left to do! Used only automotive paint as well. The two-tone colors match the exterior color and the rims.
The dash was fiberglassed by Watcher's Hookup....then I primed and painted it.
Thanks for the comments everyone...
