man i need this speedster, lol!! yours seems to be more low profile along the outer edge. the ones i see look bulky and stick up where the edge sits against the black trim. idk, hard to explain but i want one thats not so bulky in that area.Went and picked up all my parts I had my painter do for me and again he went above and beyond.
Heres a couple of the things he did the rest youll have to wait to see

yours
all the ones i see:
did you trim or shave a little off?
That second pic is mine, its a 2 piece and it fits like a b****. I cant get it to seat properly from the corners or middle. Should have gone with a 1 piece like yours
hm. interesting... i just noticed opal's was a 1pc. didnt know they came in a 1pc.

Tony The 2pc covers look like @ss. If you plan on getting one go with a 1 piece.
Finished running the stainless brake line. Had a little hold up trying to flare the stuff... but was lucky enough to have my buddy lend me his hydrolic flaring tool, which made quick work out of it. Its definitely one tool i would love to own.
Anyway this seemed to be my cleanest route
cleaned up some of the crap going back in the rear this weekend...should have the complete 31 spline shortend set up back tomorrow night and get it back under the car so I can get some brakes on this thing and measure for my wheels.
Shot of the I pad mount ill be using for the dash. Will still need to be fitted and trimed
nice plugin so it can be easily removed from the car at any time

Well took some time off from the car hence no updates in a while. I finally jumped back on it this past week so updates will be rolling in once again as I start completeing the 80 bazillion projects i have scattered around the shop. lol For now just a couple.
Picked up a bunch of stuff from stifflers while at mustang week
the fit system ready for install
finally got around to modding my termi mirrors

Scott if your not familiar with the termi mirrors they have an additional lip that actually takes a 45* turn and hang over the door about an inch and change. The lip needs to be cut off and the bottom portion of the mirror needs to be reworked and filled. I made two passes with my grinder ..the first was cutting it to the bodyline i wanted the second was just a score cut so i could bend the portion of the flap back down flush with the remainder of the mirror. The rest is just filling smoothing and paint.

thanks Musturd..
I hear ya on the exports, hard item to track down. Then again the termi mirrors are going like hotcakes, took me 8 or 9 attempts to finally come up with a set. While the modifications that need to be done arent all that crazy some people get deterred when they have to hack up a $350 set of mirrors to make them jive with our body style.
