Ok, well it still looks awesome! I love that blue!
I wasn't sure about the canards on a lighter car. Pat's BC looks great, but I figured I'd wait and see what she looks like before I put holes in the nose.
I've seen a black one w/o and his is sharp too, so now we'll see how a middle of the road color looks like....
I rode by the shop today and they were working......I don't bother them though...I have a little detail left to get to them before she's finished this go around, so I leave them be.

Yes, I'll be getting another screen. The one I bought forthe OEM bumper didn't fit on the Vertex Lang nose, so I had them cut it too fit the oil coolers which was the most important thing. Actually that isn't that large, its just the angle of the picture.
Here is the link to the day pics. She still needs a bath but I took a few this morning before I ran errands. It felt SO good getting back in the saddle! I have put 150 miles on it since I got it back.

I know.......I need to drop her. I have to save though. Megan coilovers...

You're right about needing a drop but what you've done with her so far is just amazing

The light of day shows many things.....some minor, some not so much. 
8rocks, you have good eyes, You are right. There is a bit of mending to do. 
I have survived this far, so I'll make it again. 
Top gear I saw those, did some research and have been talking to people that are experienced in suspension set-up about them. They come highly recommended. Unfortunately I don't have anywhere near what you are asking saved, let alone what new ones will cost. Besides, this job has to be corrected first, before I even think about anything else. I wish you all the luck selling yours, but I will watch that thread.

Well its been an interesting few days. From Friday until Sunday, I went over every inch of my car. I am not happy with quite a few things. It seems this man tried to save a few bucks, and its going to cost him. However, We have had a meeting of the minds and everything is fine. He was actually quite gracious about it, as you all have been so kindly. Thank you. As you can plainly see I am learning. However......we always have photoshop! The irises reflections in the door I couldnt do anything about.
This time the Canards are going on as well..
Oh, and guys I need a drop! I GET IT!

Holy ****! That looks ******* sick! Congratulations it was worth the wait!
On a side note... I was listening to Pandora(online radio) while looking at your slide show and they started playing "Hey Laura" by Christopher Cross. How's that for a sign?

Ross go back up and look at the link in post #138 to the daytime pics. I was so excited when I took hte pictures to post them I didn't notice the color difference.
^^^ That pic is photoshopped. I found a color equalizer.
Noodleboy, yes I do love Dragon's. Just wait until I get the canards on. She'll have her chin!
