Here are a few pictures of the original copied batwing sides I got from Autopro! Let me tell you these are super nice and just need to be shortened about 1" to fit the G28 body's perfect! Pictures are hard to tell since I have the sides just sitting there but I'm trying to show how well they fit the contour of my g28 body... I do believe he will be selling a few of these sets so PM him for pricing details!

Finally getting somewhere with the plenums. My fuel rail cover should be here this week sometime and I can start mounting everything down and making linkages and making it look real and functional.  ::wave

Still working on my motor cover. Purple SV670 SV was kind enough to send me some Lamborghini scripts that are amazing and really made them look good! They still need quite a bit of filler added to fill the gaps and sanded, then another coat of paint before they are finished. I also need to move one of the aluminum fins, the gap is off on it and it bothers me >:(

The second set of photos was us messing around with a Diablo wing to see how it looked on the car...

Looking good. What black paint are you using on the plenum?

I just used duplicator bedliner paint out of a spray can..

Been working on the plenum and this is so far what I've came up with.

Also been doing a little work on different areas if you have a G28 you know the area below the tail light on the driver side (where the grill goes) is smaller then the passenger side that is all getting reworked and the rockers got 1" trimmed off of them to keep the fender gap consistent. Ill keep the updates coming as I get stuff done  ::beers

if you can get cheap 50lb bags of play sand, I thought it worked decent

Pines its actually some fine, wore out sand... It works great on aluminum but doesn't do so well on rusty metal.

Is that soda blasting or sand blasting you are doing in the video?

Car looks amazing!

If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

When I moved to the island the only way to fit the car was to load it into a 5 ton, used the rear lift on the back wheels and I have a portable forklift for the front, with a helper we lifted both ends at once like an elevator and in all of 6 minutes the car was loaded, reverse process had it off in around 10 minutes, (gravity made things a little interesting coming off at the new place)
Around here unless you build a trailer there doesn't seem to be anything to rent that will fit the width of the wheels and rockers

I paid $70 to haul my car home just recently, a lot just to tow it 10 miles but a roll back is all I could think of that it would fit on and no hassle at all. I'm happy to be able to work on it again though so it was worth it :)
Your car is really looking like a murcie, awesome
