The plastic between the lip are to prevent the two sides from bonding together. My goal is to wrap the top dash in vinyl and have a big area here where I can screw both pieces together

Hey jb1 thanks I'm trying my best to share what I can. But like I said you may not want to look at my car as an example Lol
Hey Tallon, yeah I am so new to this whole Murcielago thing I don't even know what I don't know. Lol
It seems like there are so many variations between the years and accessories. Then you got guys customizing their cars and replicas. Mind boggling for my simple mind. Couple that with the fact I'm in the swimming pool business and guess when we are the busiest. But trying to do the best I can. I got a couple really good guys working with me. Thanks for looking...dave

I got to be one of the biggest dorks since I didn't even notice the two sides are different and I need to ask you guys what's up with that. Why does the one side have that open louver?

:S ask lambo
you don't look at many murcie pics do you? lol
you do have to make the little slot on the passenger side one though (if you want)

Here is a plate my buddy welded in to hold the power window mechanism but after looking at jets303 ongoing power window build I may not need this. Its just tack welded for now.

Here are the latches we got from pick n pull for this project and our near future project. We also have a linear actuator off a cadillac we will try and use on the door latch

Here's a pic of my business partner's corvette and the wheels/tires I get to have once he gets his new rims. Need to have the bigger rims just to get the 13 inch brakes installed. Got the 13 inch brake upgrade from Paul Smith and I'm very impressed with his business practices. Can't say much on the disc conversion as it is still in the boxes. But they look great. I had them drilled for the 5x100mm and the 5x4 3/4 lug pattern.

Even trying to guess where the foam needed to be cut and where the attachment is made is pretty vague from the pics

Here is the back piece and its pretty obvious where you cut out the fiberglass.
