They're up now, maybe my PC was slipping a gear??
Nice job there, like the threaded stock used as a support for the filler, looks like a solid plan.
Thanks. I figured the threaded stock would be a good choice. Its tightly threaded into the plastic and is super solid. Ordered some 2K clearcoat, so this wont be done till that comes in, but shouldn't be longer than a week.

That was a great idea using threaded rod. Can't wait to see the finished product.
That's super sudsy, Andy! You using some sort of spray gun for the soap?

Looking good so far! What did you use for the filler? I used some styrofoam material as the major filler and the finished it off with regular bondo filler.

Thanks! I used Bondo with some fiberglass strands mixed in for the main filler. After sanding that to shape, Glazed with glazing & spot putty. Letting it dry for 24 hours, then moving onto primer.
Bit more progress. After all the glazing, sanding and primer, finding some tiny imperfections that need to be addressed. That being said first coat of paint went on pretty nicely.
I was finally able to install the custom intakes from Admintuning as well as tune the car in R/T tuning today. I'm loving the results, I'm thinking next up plenium, big bore, and akebono bbk. Just to really be satisfied with the performance.
I hope to catch her her hold up with the sun out to really capture how amazing the intakes came out.
