Looks sharp, not a fan of the CF hood too much on white, but the kit/wheels/drop/tint really set of your car nicely.

I am pretty busy through out the end of the month. I moved this weekend, still need to unpack. Next weekend maybe shot depending on how long project X takes. Dunno. I will hit you up with my # and maybe you can do the same. If my project next weekend finishes up with time to spare, you and Ralf should definately check it out!

Adding the 97-99 trunk IS the conversion, the trunk tails are different, the lock position, and there's no indent on the newer trunks thats all, nothing else required

i was told that 4th CF hoods look like crap up close, but yours looks really sweet especially with the white paint and the grey (gunmetal?) rims, I'm almost inspired to get 1 for my MAX, too bad the CF alterezza taillights DO look like sh** (i dunno if the pair I saw was beat up or sumthing but it looked like crap, do they use real CF to make those?!) cuz then I'd match 'em up, how much does that sucker (the CF hood) weigh?

yeah i'd say take off the hydrolic pumps and get something else to pop your hood cuz those hydraulics are set to pop a much heavier hood, and the excess force could ruin your hood.

Bah! Clean out your PM box. :P I am trying not to annouce this to the world until its done. Here is your hint. I had to add an Adujstable Fuel Pressure Regulator, a RPM Switch, and redo some internal engine stuff to make this mod work. I will be the only one in Austin running this set up for now. Any guesses?

Edit

When I say "I" its a "corporate I." I dont want to take credit away from the person doing all the work. I, at most, have just a helping hand in bringing this to completion.
