holy pork.
From what I can see that looks gorgeous, I hate teaser shots... I always want more. When do you think she'll be ready - that carbon fibre looks gorgeous - can I have a ride in it!

i really wish i had the patient that you seem to have. if i was to do anything like that i'd take it to a pro and tell them 5 days or i'll get someone else to do it....i have no idea what i'd be doing, i'd be scared of destroying something beautiful :/

Just sanded them down with good old wet and dry boss and the used silvo (yes...Silvo..lol) and lots of elbow grease.......
The exhaust is a 4" Remus which i have only just discovered may be dead...............
Car is too low and bottoms out that backbox, nice crack in the silencer......may be fixable
