Pretty much done with this first side. Haven't been able to work on it much this past week but I've been taking it slow. First time doing body work like this. The corner you see sticking out wasn't screwed in when i took the pic!





Since the weather has been shitty I wouldn't been driving it anyways but it's coming along

How much weight did that save over the factory panel?

If they are lighter its negligible. I'm willing to bet they are mainly fiberglass with a couple layers carbon fiber matting on top. When the first set was terrible quality I chose to upgrade to these (which they said are much better quality) for a small fee. They definitely are better quality.

Couple quick pics last night. As much as we need it I'm ready for this rain to stop.

Thanks man. That was the first time I got to take her out in almost two months! Felt good to get her cleaned up. I was planning on taking it to the painter Thursday but got the call to deploy to the Ukraine. They gave me a cool 24 hours notice. Lol.

It is for now until I get coilovers. Any lower would really be hard to get around though.
