I hadn't thought about the inspection thing. Don't think it will really be an issue.

Fitment: Here's what the guy told me...

The molds themselves fit beautifully. They were spot on and aligned extremely well with the car. Seibon advertises that they are "full OEM molds" and are pre-drilled with all fasterner locations. Yea, this is not the case. A lot of custom work had to be done by the shop to get the window guides, locks, etc moved over to this. Most of them had to be drilled out of original doors. Not a huge deal, they handled it LIKE A BOSS.

They're out in the country, but man is he good. He'll get all of my future work.

Quoted for reference to Rocky's, they'll get my biz in the future too.

That looks insane, and I got morning wood while reading about it being much lighter.

I know you don't agree with my color thoughts on wheels, but that thing needs some dark, lightweight wheels ASAP!

Will do. A pure side shot would help, but those wheels are common enough that I should be able to find a set with a similar angle if you don't have one.

Damn that looks slick. I too am super curious as to how many pounds you shed. Now all you need is a hood, rear diffuser, lip, and roof to complete the theme
