No, I wish. I'm tempted to buy JPs Ganador bar but I'm on the fence right now. It's a little more than I would like to lay out given what I've spent and the projects I already have mapped out. Once I swap my lights out, finish the folding mirror project and sell off the extras I may reconsider but those funds could be applied to other areas of my life where they would be a better fit.
I was referring to the Top Secret anchor bar for the harnesses, would be totally impractical but still tempting.

Im not so sure about your cf paddle shifter, especially when you change your steering wheel to cf. Might be a bit much
Did you consider other paddle shifter options from the Gtr ?

I haven't looked at the GTR paddles, I liked the magnesium just fine but grabbed these when they came up. I'm still on the fence about a new wheel. Couple reasons, the one I have is just fine, not sure if it would be too,much CF especially in that cluster. And just not certain I want to spend the money.
Of course,thats today.

Been a while but...
Headlights are in
VLEDs will be here Wednesday
TBW undershroud is waiting at the shop
Plugs are in
Horns are in
Diffuser is in
OSRAMS are en route TBD
Winkers are being fitted to the mirrors
Hood is shipping Wednesday
Skirts are shipping Wednesday
I'm getting closer I think.
Not sure I'm going to use the seats I bought, may just sell them. Would still love those Bride seats but at $3500 it's not practical.
Working on a new AT shifter assembly, should know soon. Waiting on the custom purple TK Donatello turtle. May decide to redo my engine cover around that.
So glad I bought this car because it didn't need any work.

Well, the hood is still OEM for now. I need to ship to El Paso along with the GTR vents to get it finished but the design is set now. May do a set of fenders while I'm at it but am on the fence, that just means more wiring and tapping etc.
Then there's the whole grille quandary....

Thanks Brad! Looks like I'll need more time than I thought. As I make adjustments I screw up other things...
Chris go for the GTR vents bro!!!! I love that look.
I've actually toyed with the idea of getting a hood like Kuro's or some GTR vents on my car....but I've gotten some negative feedback on the idea since I have a convertible. Mostly thoughts like "not sure if those vents would look right on a convertible."

I'm not sure if I'm going to like my hood but now... I have a vision so the heck with it.
I think the vents would look good on a vert.
My vents are already purchased and in my office. It's a go with them regardless once I get the hood to the shop for modding. Looks definite that I will be swapping out my AT shifter for a Hebi Bebi or other TK shifter ****. Oughta be interesting.
