Some new bodywork I'm planning on getting done....

I'm getting this new rear apron, should be here soon:


ALL painted silverstone:



But I'm probably going to paint the bottom a flat black like this (chop):



BUT, I'm going to mold it like this:




Finally, new sideskirts are in my garage right now, very subtle look, here is a sample:



Then, I will be DONE with my body! However, I'm thinking of getting a vented hood.. but I'l wait on that.. my Koyo radiator should do the job.......

molded and flat black in the lower part will give it that exotic look.

I hope my bodyshop can do the molding... I talked to them today and hopefully I'll get the car in this week if the bumper arrives in the next few days...if not, I'll have to wait until after the turbo and engine build.
