i know mirrors aren't a NECESSITY, but if you're that hardcore into weight savings, wouldn't you ditch the factory hardtop for a cheaper, lighter aftermarket one?

what's on the bottom of the license plate, that red thing?
Looks like a transponder for time attack.

They're usually in the front though

That car has sideview mirrors because it doesnt have the center rearview mirror (it would be useless on that car).

no, leave it black, black hardtop looks best on any color imo
Normally I would agree but since his car isn't totally red and I see a red and white theme I think the black hardtop looks out of place.

There is no side mirrors on the car cause I built the car in a little over a week and we didnt have time to put the ASM style mirrors on that go on the little triangles in front of the window.

The little red thing on the license plate is the lap timer from Redline Time Attack.


The hardtop is black so we can use it on all of our cars here at the shop if needed, plus like someone said, black looks best!

The front fenders have been pulled and flared and then professionally smoothed when they were painted.

The rear fenders have been rolled and pushed out very very slightly and the rear bumper tab was relocated and the rear bumper was trimmed. NONE OF THE METAL WAS TRIMMED! - It is BAD to trim the metal.
