It’d be subtle. Look like a black roof from oblique angles (sorry, Joe! 🙂 ), then BAM there’s the rising sun hiding under that smoke clearcoat.

I really want the roof painted that way, but I’m not sure the roof is straight enough…budgetary constraints on my bodywork budget prevented a better roof fix-up, but the rising sun may actually hide some of the wavyness or make it worse. Guess we’ll have to lay it down later and see?

And, here’s a slightly better pic I snapped off at lunch.

I’m just building anticipation for later! 😃

Those are the Rotas’, with BFG Drag Radials (225/50/15) on front and Sumitomo knock-offs on back. It’s a world of difference, so much more stable than the 13" pie-cutters.

I already told him, no luck. You know the air gets pretty thin up at those heights, don’t want him passing out on the strip. I did grab him a swaybar though…hear that Justin? Just a friendly little push…

First things first…I need a rear GSR trailing arm/control arm/disc brake swap…and a front brake upgrade. It’s got a lot more rotating mass and the little brakes are not up to the task.
