    Cooling issues were my biggest set backs too. Good luck with hashing it all out.

    No. its shaped and resin covered but i found a different led strip i want to get to fit in there and it kinda got put aside. I took the little window mount tabs off and it was really clean so i'm not in a rush.

    Tried like crazy to get the car to H20 up to the point i didn't make my 600 mile drive until 11pm friday night in a van lol. Got to talk to Chris at C2 and he informs me that the car will buck and bog down if the fuel pressure isn't set right. i also acquired the information that to set an adjustable fuel reg you need to do it with the vacuum line off

    Heat issue was pretty severe. got hot, blew steam out for a bit due to the air pockets and my faulty design. well that kicked off a complete redo of the cooling system last minute. the main hoses were pulled back out and rerouted at the height of the frame rails and lower than the top of the radiator. The flaw i see, besides that was i took the bung of the head that went to heater core and rerouted it back to lower rad hose in the crack pipe basically dumping the hottest water back with the coolest right before it re-enters the block. i had my buddy turn me down a little fitting tapped with npt threads ran a hose from there to a bung on top of the radiator and now it should remove the air automatically using an overflow bottle, which i didn't have before.

    And if it all wasn't frustrating enough i hit a live wire on my brand new griffin rad and put a hole in a tube. had to pull that friday morning to get fixed

    Did it react with the resin at all when you layed the fiber glass hair stuff over the foam?
    I only ask because I want to try and make my own lip spoiler.. Trying to figure out what won't react with resin.

    The foam was just like the green blocks you get at most fabric stores.

    What kind of foam did you use to sculpt the spoiler? Caps look awesome, love the wheels and wheel finish.
    What a cool car, the camo paint isn't my cuppa, but what a bad ass Porsche!
