LOL, yeah that's my car....glad to see images are making the rounds so to speak. It's all Chuck's stuff...I wish the FEED replica were a bit thicker in some areas. I already have cracks. Looks awesome though. Even grandma stares. Rocket7, you're not calling my **** rice are ya? :-) Heck, I don't even have a rear wing!

Hey Michel on a side note. is there somewhere I could see some of the pics you took at the fall MADS the year before last?
Did you get any of mine or Rikkis cars?
For some reason I lost most of the pics of my car when It was Montego.
Did you ever put any in the article you were doing for overboost.com at the time?

No rear wing or rear diffuser as of yet...but big plans down the road. I'll probably finish off the rear with Chuck's carbon fiber diffuser and leave it wingless...we'll see. I've only seen a few wings that I actually like. I'm not a big fan of big wings. Here's my list so far. 1)Feed 2)Knightsports Type V 3)JSP "Blade"
I had a very crappy body shop. They did not prep my nose correctly at all. As such, the paint chipping is pretty severe. Cracks came from my installation of the nose and from daily driving. I just feel that the sides, where it attaches to the front 1/4 panels w/ three bolts (if you've ever removed the front end you'll know what I'm talking about) need to be a bit thicker. I'm no body man so it's probably just me. Fitment, while very good, wasn't perfect on my car (could be my car) and thus it was "stretched" a hair to get the edges/bolts to line up on the side. It's since cracked a bit. Nothing that can't be fixed. I plan on purchasing a "cheap" nose, painting it, and using it for daily driving. I'll have the FEED repainted by a shop that knows what they're doing and use that for "special" occasions, LOL. Actually, when I go three rotor in a few months, I plan on going with RE Amemiya's GT2000 nose and AD GT side skirts to get extra wheel width in there to handle the additional power.
FD, I'm sure I have them somewhere...I'd have to dig through my archives to find them. Give me a few days. Never did the Overboost article as we came to a big disagreement over payment (they offered X amount per article, went back on their word and then never paid) so I refused to send them additional articles. I still have around 6 additional installments for that series that I may find another outlet for. Problem is, I continued to modify the car, rather severely, but didn't document it. I think I will document the 3 rotor conversion as I'm doing everything (installation and sourcing) myself plus I'll be taking my time in doing it :-) That makes it a bit easier to photograph and do writeups. Usually I'm like a kid in a candy store. I get the part and 10 minutes later I have it installed.
