Gaps look awesome - a lot of work went into those!

Thank You, Jim has definitely gone the extra mile on the gaps. The Car will come out better than I ever expected for sure.

the trunk lid I ordered initially was way out of adjustment, Jim tried to make it fit, but at the end of the day it was just too cheap of a product. Jim ordered a new one and it would appear we are on track again in the rear of the car.

I'll shut up now.

All Joking aside, Jim has been crushing it above and beyond expectations! installed a the cage, smoothed the firewall, subframe connectors, fit the Fesler Flushmount glass, extended the A-pillars, and Fenders to clean up the gap where the trim would normally fill.

NOT TO MENTION THE BADASS PAINTJOB!!!!

Ill shutup now.

Nice! Is that a really dark gray, or a black with a lot of metallic?

Either way, looks great, congrats.

It’s a really dark gray. It looks black when it’s not in direct light!

Well Lat-G its been a while, My second child came into the world last December and 2 days after we got home from the hospital the Camaro showed up. I haven't made too much progress with COVID and having two kiddos under 2. Here are some pics.

Love how they ended the A-pillar. That’s probably one of the best fitting flush mount glass swaps I’ve seen.

Thank You Sir! We’ll get there, at the rate I’m going I’ll have it finished when he gets his license.

Love how they ended the A-pillar. That’s probably one of the best fitting flush mount glass swaps I’ve seen.

Jim really killed the metal work on the flushmount. We spent a lot of time digging up how other people had done them to find what we liked. I’m very happy with the outcome.
