Re: What do you want!
So I'm getting the gears turning.. I've seen:
-Louvers, repeatedly. I'm playing around with ideas, not going to be my first project though.
- Grille, I could make something happen. I'm thinking stainless steel with whatever choices of finishes are available. Powdercoating comes in a wide range of colors, and its usually close in price for any color.
-Strakes, would be difficult to use anything but plastic or fiberglass for the strakes themselves and steel for the grille.
-Open air vent for hatch area. Cool idea, but it could get complicated and expensive to work properly. Definately a thought.
-Chin spoiler. Like the louvers, not my specialty but possible. Fiberglass is easy to work with and cheap. My friends do bodywork on old vettes and can make custom panels, do repairs etc.
-Short shifter / ****. I don't know if the shifter needs to be shorter, but improvements can definately be made. I would like to make one with a larger diameter for a more solid feel. I have some ideas, and I like this project. I won't forget the spine
.
-Dead pedal- easy, but there are options out there identical to what I had envisioned.
-Billet aluminum/stainless steel dressup accessories, definately possible.
I'll work on some designs during the week. Bear with me with this stuff, because I am still in school and work a decent amount. Time is at a premium and I'm doing this in my spare time. This is a side project for me, not a business venture. This should be fun for everyone. lol
