Agreed that is nice looking material.  I also need some for the grills by the quarter windows and a side air scoop, good find  ::thumbup

That's a good looking mesh. I might get some of that. I'm mostly using OEM grills, but there are a couple that I couldn't get.  I have a nice powder coated aluminum mesh, but this one looks closer to the OEM grill mesh.

The panel fit is really nice! Great job! Definite advantage of 3d printing the parts. (If the cards line up I'll finally start mounting my panels next week).

Are you planning on using OEM vent grills or will you print those too?  If you plan on using OEM, how close are your measurements?

Neils, Thanks!  I cannot use OEM vents, since I am running a widebody (4" wider than stock).  I found this on eBay and it is a little denser, but I like it.

Ohhh that spoiler looks awesome  :drool  Great job on the infusion.
  Thanks!  It is what I call rear deck.  I have a rear wing that goes through the deck and attaches to the frame.

Rear deck fitment.  Big sigh of relief.

Cups are from Stanceparts.com.  The air system is a Ride tech system, but you can use a static system from stanceparts.  I wanted the functionality of the ride tech.

It looks like you have the same coil overs as I do.   Really need a system like this or I will have the same problems as you.  Where did you get the parts and do you have any more info on them?  Great work on the car  ::thumbup

So rather than trash all my work by running a low clearance, I am going with a lift system.  This will give me an extra 2" of ride height on demand.

These transition pieces are going to be key without molds. I can get the panels very close, but when wanting nice tight shot lines, it will give me some flexibility. Beside, metal work is fun. What say you?

Rear air diffuser fit, quarter panels out of the bag, and new air lift system for the coil overs.
