Thanks, I appreciate all the positive feedback guys! ultimately I'm building the car I've always wanted so if its not for everyone that's okay; it would be silly to expect everyone to like it but I am glad to see that other people like it too!
I've made a few parts choices that I consider a bit on the edge; the hood is pretty aggressive for a mostly-stock car and the rear wheels are a little more aggressive than I originally wanted at 9.5 +38 but they seem to work pretty well without needing too much camber.
The single exhaust looks kind of goofy with the empty bumper opening on the left side but the weight savigns and the performance gain ultimately won me over in spite of my perceived deficit in the looks department over a nice dual exhaust. The bumper and sideskirts are going to dramatically change the look of the car but I'm excited to go there.
All-in-all its been fun and its about to get really interesting! hope to meet more s2k enthusiasts!
