Looks good are you just getting another coat of primer or is it getting painted?

I am going to have it painted at the beginning of February. The door jambs, doors, and parts of the body will need another coat of primer since I still have stuff left to do.

I'm looking at painting it either Candy Blood Red or a variation of the stock Candy Apple Red.

That picture is with the old coils. The new ones made it 2" higher. I plan on lowering it even more once I get my new rims.

Looks like I am getting custom made side scoops since my eleanor ones won't work. Probably a decent chunk on money for them.

Why do you need custom side scoops? The aftermarket eleanor ones dont work?

Passenger side eleanor scoop could be made to work, but the drivers side was too far messed up. Said he would have to completely rebuild that scoop to make it work. Would be easier to just chop them up and use parts of them for custom scoops. The scoops should be similar to the GT/CS scoops.

Hopefully it will get a turbo system put on before my first car show, but I am not to sure.
