Figured Id start a new thread in pics section :) So far we have the rear quarters and wing kinda mocked up. Car must have been hit at 1 time on teh pass rear quarter cause there was about 10lbs of lead sprayed in there :chair: Glad we got rid of that nonsense. But the front we got mocked up quite well, didnt encounter all that many problems. And that grill you see will not be staying that stand out icky color :) After mocking up teh whole car carbon doors are a must so those we are now on the hunt for aswell

Sorry for the bad dusty pics but my camera is not up to par, hope you all enjoy.

Here is 2 old pics

All I can say is ALOT :) The stock panels are super heavy and along with a few coats of paint were not the lightest things on the block. The rear quarters stock weigh in at 31 lbs and the carbon panel is 6 so just in teh rear quarters its shaving 50lbs. After the car is done I will have to weigh it and see what it actually sits in at, im thinkin somewhere in the low low 2000 range. BTW ty for the comments and hopefully my buddy will bring his camera over so i can get a couple better pics. : )

Meh...thats what the regal is for. Old man likes the freeway with his car, he drives the car like its a piece of glass ready to shatter at any moment so a pass at GLD would prolly be a 1 time deal if it ever happened :goof Plus the car still needs a 930 turbo trans b4 any real power can be unleashed. 915 trans cannot handle the motor at the moment. But thats all stuff for the lonely winter :)
