Not sure on what to do yet. I will most likely powdercoat it black and have it match the aluminum door panels.

Also had our interior guy do some work to these pieces. Loved how it came out. Had to represent the shop colors, Black and Gold.

More to come!

I have more to come as well. For those viewing this, can you help me find these parts shipped to Socal or picked up in Socal?

Parts I need for my interior conversion:

C5 FRC Rear Trim Pieces (These 3 pieces)


Mine have at least 1 tab broken on each piece and I don't feel like customize broken pieces that will never fit properly.

If you could help out, I'd appreciate it.

So about 2 weeks, then?

9KJoey

I think the only issue right now is parts. Everything is really coming together. My interior is 60%, suspension game on lock, engine is chill, and just exterior.

So with that list, how far over/under your initial budget are you? What's the total package (not counting the labor, just in parts)?

3boystoys

25 pages of stuff and none of the pics show up.

Try another browser. They're fine for me.

9KJoey

WAY WAY under budget.

I'm about 18k right now. I can hit my goal as long as I don't touch the motor.

I see myself hitting the 30k marker once I jump to a ls6 with Itbs.

66dts-v

Nice, that's one hell of a build for sub $20k.

are you billing yourself for your time?

Guess what Santa brought me



Callaway Eibach Pro Coilovers with external reservoirs.Pretty pumped to get these installed. Only downside is that they aren't a true coilover design since these still use the leaf springs.

I've never used or really seen this setup so I am not familiar with it other than it boasts a nasty price tag.

Does anyone have any feedback on this setup? Should I sell them off and go with a true coilover design or use them?

Also how low can I slam my car running these in conjunction of my leafers? I'm looking to enter my car into this year's Sema and don't want it having a thick *** wheel gap.

Also snagged a new intake for $50 bucks. Should make a great replacement from the ebay one that came on the car.

9KJoey

I might be buying a sick bolt in harness bar/back cage setup from a local so hopefully I can land that deal and have it installed by the weekend.

My green takatas were resold to a customer and the black series will just take its place. Should flow evenly with my black and gold interior color scheme.

IE and Chrome do not work, I see the images with Firefox.

@3boystoys... I'm guessing you have some type of malware on your system or some tracking cookies that might be causing some slight harm. I'd run an anti-malware software of your choice (there are lots out there, some people prefer some to others). That will probably fix it.

On topic... If I were you, I'd keep track of the hours I've worked on this project. It will probably blow you away when you're finished how much it would have cost.

I'm curious to see all the things you have roll out. It'll be pretty sweet.

For the dash, just an FYI... aluminum & carbon fiber WILL glare of the windshield like crazy (I'd guess even if it was matte). Especially on the top. If I were you I think a mixture of leather/carbon, or leather/aluminum. If you look at the new mclaren p1's dash you can see how the whole thing is carbon, but they use strategically placed alcantara sections to cover. Also, I remember Jeremy Clarkson complaining about that issue with the Alfa Romeo 8C in his special on best driving cars (which the 8c did not win by a long shot).
