Very impressive so far, but personally I would have designed it to also be removable just in case you need to work on something in the rear of the car

I agree.....if you blow a shock or get hit in the back (knock on wood) your never gonna be able to get the the shocks. I would have just thrown a crap load of dynamat back there. I am eagerly awaiting the completion of this. so far I like it tho!

Damn, this looks like it will turn out pretty nice. Sucks that you're going on vacation, now I won't be able to see any more progress for a while Looks great so far though, especially for your first big setup.
