Pretty impressive if you ask me. How did you figure out the dimensions?
If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

That is not too bad. What material is it made of? How did you make it?

Here's my attempt at the newer window switch surround, I planned to send it off for someone else to mess with but I never get the chance to  :sosad

Hi guys,
Some have asked me to put this back up so here goes.
As some of you know I had my car at work for awhile and brought my chassis back home once I was able to get some concrete poured. Today I finally brought the body home so I am feeling a little more motivated than usual. I figured I'll post my diary back up although I am not sure how much progress I'll make right away. If I have any money it might go in to getting some walls up in this general area.
Sorry I can't get my camera to take decent pics for some reason.
Engine is from a 4.2 Audi A8 with an auto 5hp19 transmission, since I want to have a similar interior set up as oem with paddles and center console controls, using the same actuator setup as shown in usmc_butler's build but only for park, drive, reverse then there will be a sport mode button thanks to the transmission.
Typical chassisworks chassis with some naerc dimensions.

This is just a quick test fit of the front bumper and trust me it looks like a decent fit only in the picture. Some work needs to be done to the body I just haven't figured out exactly what needs modifying yet.

Here's a pic of me test fitting the lens on my modified g28 bucket, I haven't seen anyone else try to do this so thought I'd show it, I've since added sides for a cleaner look and molded the brows in to the bucket, I'm still working on them though.

I don't know if I need to show a lot of the oem style interior parts I've obtained since they're basically the same as everyone else's.
I'm going to do more of the much needed work on the chassis now that I have the body back with me.
