This car will probably not see much time on public roads...I'm scared some yahoo will rear end me at stop light. Also, I bet every Tom, Dick, and Harry will want to race me constantly.
Agree, but I think JDMxGE8 meant "road racing" as in sactioned racing on a paved surface...

I use the Rage Extreme (Pink can)...it is good stuff. For spot repairs I use Bondo glazing compound...comes in a tube and sands really easy as well.

So I finished mocking up the diffuser lip and I'm about 75% happy with the way it turned out (I'm OCD + perfectionist). This was as much a "proof of concept" as anything...and I learned alot from working on it. Now I know what to do to make it >95% how I want it and I will reattempt this project soon...

The REAR doors are getting gutted out...they will basically just be shells. The FRONT doors will retain all power features - windows (especially since I gutted the AC vents out of the dash) and locks.
