Your call. It definitely helps when you have someone helping that actually helps.
So close. Stay motivated.
+1 to that. Working by yourself can be detrimental sometimes.
The first thing I do after logging in everyday is check this build for updates, keep up the great work!
newman I cant blame ya. I never finish any of my projects. your oh so close tho.
OK, got back to work.
Here were my test fitting cuts on the dash. It’s a good thing that I have 2! (This one was cracked to shit anyway)
So then I got around to cutting it for real, with a holesaw. It came out pretty good but there were some gaping holes on the backside… had to think of something to cover them up…
So i still had some pre-preg CF left over from my closeoff… I wish that the dash was a little flatter, as this would work a lot better.
I may change it up, still unsure. It’ll probably be a winter project or something…
And lastly I test fit my new wing, dropping that off for paint today…
it’s creepy seeing the exhaust routed without the tunnel installed. wrapping/coating it? and what are you planning on using for heat shielding? something off the shelf from DEI ect? dash looks as though it fits, consider making some fiberglass panels that would fit more reliably over the winter? b/c i bet that CF is going to pop up no matter how good you bond it…
Yeah, I actually might change them to aluminum and screw them down. Not sure, but it will work for now, and it’s better than the big ugly holes.
I’m really hoping I can get the tunnel in there without removing the dash, I think I can. I just need to find the plug for the wiper motor and the reverse sensor and install them with some long wires before I can put it on.
I am going to wrap the exhaust eventually, but not til winter, prob. I wanna make sure there are no leaks…
newman if you need someone to come and yell motivational phrases at you while you work on the car let me know.
Lol, I’ll keep that in mind. Even though I think I’ll get more done when people are over, that never seems to be the case unless they just put their head down and do work.
Luke, is TOP notch, in all things automotive, no doubt.
When you head over, call me and put me on speaker. I’ll help with the screaming at newman for no reason.
i am still in debt, let me know if you have any menial tasks that need doing.
you should look into this for heat wrapping.
looks pretty legit to me:
I’m free the 5th snookums…
gettin there. think she will run this weekend? 
(idk how many times i have told myself, 1 more days work and she will be running)
build def. deserves 2 thumbs up from the pirate hooker:
(mods delete the pic if you feel the need to, since people like to complain about a good looking female body approving this thread)

Thanks for making the thread just about go NWS.
Its a good looking female approving UNIX…
You could always wrap the dash in some anti-glare fabric, and use that plus some filler pieces to hide holes…
Nice progress…does the dash look that bad without the CF? I would say just leave it…:shrug:
Haha, Thanks. I don’t know about in all things automotive…I can always learn more and I really try to get things done right. I feel that if you think about things for a little bit it helps. However, you can’t plan for everything and everyone makes the dumbest mistakes.
