Saw the car in person tonight, looks amazing. Also saw the RS truck, that thing sounds mean....

This may or may not be a secret - but what did you attach your door panels to the doors with?

People keep telling me velcro - but with component in the panel and a door pull and sever pounds of fiber glass you can see where my concern might lie.

Side note - Ive scoured the internet for those switched you used - still cant find them. Well done.

For the doors, no big secret...you can ask Marquez and they will probably tell you the same thing. They can be held on with velcro if you like. Different upholstery guys like to do different things. Some will use 'christmas tree' style clips, some a double sided, high strength foam tape, some will use screws in discreet locations. They also offer a finger pull for the door which has a bracket that mounts to the door shell and serves as another mounting point.

Thanks for all the comments everyone! :thumbsup:

The car was a hit at the Goodguys Indy show also, picking up another 'Innovation Award'.

Stunning. Absolutely strunning. You nailed it. :thumbsup: :cheers:

[wiedemab]

Cool car for sure. After the Friday wind and weather, it turned out to be a great weekend at Indy.

All I can say is the car looks even better in person. The red looks just right more subtle than in the pictures, not over done. The interior is the bigity bomb. :thumbsup:

Did you just compliment a Camaro build? Really?

Like you saw it in person or sump-in? :lol:

Maybe someday I'll say that about yours. Maybe. :D

For the record, I never said it was as sick as a Torino. :unibrow:

My favorite pic of the build.

[fleetus macmullitz]

That is the beauty of a less is more design.

The red and white plus some black against the carbon fibre...wow. :cool:

The paint on the car is PPG. Nothing special here, just straight out of the can, black toner basecoat.
