Talk about progress over the past year or so. I'm glad you updated this but I know there's so much more to include, looking forward to it Derek.

the risers were cut from titanium so they were burned to give them that burnt ti finish that most people know!

I wanted the diffuser to match the body lines of the car as well as be fitted more tightly to the car rather than sit so low

I had the paint faded from matte to gloss to show off the carbon on the trunk as I am not a fan of full carbon body panels

the final touches of body work were done

and the car was assembled and brought to its first event in a very long time tuner evo 2015 here are some pictures of its current state at the latest event.


before the pictures I just want to say thank you to everyone over the years who followed along with the build etc I apologies for not really keeping up with it as life did get hectic and I get to a low point on the build when things werent really coming together. However the car is now back in full swing and the build will continue.

This quick update I have done with a few posts is almost nothing compared to what has been done in the time I have 1000's of pictures almost step by step as I have kept in the past through the entire build however to go back and try and arrange each and every single one is very time consuming so I hope me putting together just a few posts gets everyone up to date on whats going on!

also if you had any specific questions about anything ask away ! i love questions and can typically provide pictures with the answer etc!

hey.. where did you get the CF peice between the windshield and hood?
A few were made by a trader on here (under 10) - I have one but am trying to sell the damned thing as my S is RHD.

Derek - Pleased to hear that you'll be sharing more about your build with us again.
