I wanted to make my wheels "appear" to be a "One Nut" racing type.  I modified a bilge pump hull fitting to make do.

Lambiero,

Nice CF tail light Bezel.... Did you cut that out and make it in CF or is it just an overlay and the bezel is still part of the car.
What and how may I ask you did.

Thanks
CCIE
PS Awesome work

No problem, Mike.  Somewhere between Pittsburgh and Carlisle.  I didn't know that I had lost it until Friday morning.  I'll just make a new one.  Thanks for the offer.

Thanks, guys for your much needed support ::thumbup ::thumbup ::thumbup
If anyone is traveling on I-76 in PA. and see a square piece of fiberglass beside the road, please pick it up.  I lost my front trunk lid while hauling to Carlisle.  I do hope that no one was injured by it.  I didn't tape it down as the car had a cover on it and was tarped.  Strange things seem to happen in Pennsylvania.  >:( :'( ::LAMBO

Here are some progress pics of my work to have something of value to take to Carlisle.  (1-2) my spoiler standoffs which had to be raised 3".  (3) my wheels widened 2.5" for the rear.  (4-5) my feeble attempt to recreate a GTR engine cover.  (6) the way that she looks today 5/20/14.  Jim

Eddie:  No offense taken.  The choice of the performance of cooling fans is up to the builder.  With a proper cooling system, most fans do not run during highway speeds.  Fans will run at slower traffic speeds/city driving when the cooling ability/heat transfer of the radiators has been reached at system limits.  The CFM of your cooling fans must be increased in a ratio to the thermo efficiency of your radiators, thus the need for higher volume fans.  Since I have just recently got my system operable, I will have to monitor the temps and possibly purchase the Spal fans as you have suggested should the need arise.  Thanks for for the valid point. ::thumbup  Jim
