Wayne's Tropic Green New Edge GT

[ironhorsewayne]

My Vert GT. I have a few plans for it. Installed the styling bar in the first week of owning it. Hopefully I'll be able to keep this thread exciting.I think the first thing on my agenda is to remove the NX NOS system. I just don't honestly see myself using it enough. Selling it to fund some other plans seems more prudent.Despite some body issues this thing came super clean with newly installed factory leather.the seller claimed the soft top was newer but this area needs some SERIOUS help and I honestly don't know where to even begin. Gonna have to hit up YouTube on this one. anyway, this is how she sits currently. I'll hopefully have some updates as she progresses!

Awesome thread!
A few years from now while building this thread, youll love reflecting on your cars progress.

Great intro!

Thanks guys! At this point I have more ideas than time or money but I think I'm in this one for the long haul so I suppose there's no rush.

Style bar looks awesome though. MMD fitment aside

Literally some of the worst instructions I've ever read and the "template" that it came with might as well have been "your guess is as good as mine". That aside I only messed up BOTH of my panels in spots not even related to the holes i cut and one side doesn't sit particularly flush but in general it doesn't look half bad. Idk if other bars (saleen?) are better to install but if I knew the mmd install was going to go that way I'd have gone another route.

Some inspo pics I've come across. Although after seeing the termi bumper with the GT hood I think I could live without a cowl hood. Because that looks slick.

Perhaps I'll dave my money and buy a new CDC, although my dutch blood cringes at the price tag. Heck.. I cringe looking at brand new MMD style bar prices

 

[ironhorsewayne]

Just looking at the cdc I can tell it's a better designed product...dang, should have gotten that (although I wasn't aware of it lol)
