is that a full kit I wonder padding and the leather

They sell a couple things

Front two seats - upholstery - in either vinyl or leather
complete interior upholstery in both materials
and seat foams sold separately, but highly recommended by them.

It's almost too thick/firm. Just drove 4 hour round trip and the rear view mirror is a lot lower than it used to be.

Took intake apart. Needed cleaning to say the least - just wish I took befores...

Took off the seams??? Mass pitting as well. It's awesome - not perfect, just awesome.

I'll be putting new TB and stuff back on tomorrow - barring rain.

Finished.

New TB while there. Had to enlarge throttle cable hole thingy - where it wraps around and pins in...

The plenum was filed, brushed, sanded, and filed and sanded cuz the thing is poured. They left all the edges and ridges and all uneven inside. It was alot of work but worth it. Fired up first try...

Removed the stupid fake hood scoop in preparation for a heat extractor install. Al over at Race Louvers is going to build a custom heat extractor vent that will be both functional, and properly mate to the contours of the scoopless hood.

Welp, I've abandoned this idea due to the long body lines on the stock hood and the inability to create a one piece design. I found a 99/01 Cobra hood a few hours away that seems to be in good condition. I'm going to pick it up, and install the 99/01 Cobra specific heat extractor from Race Louvers, along with some Aerocatch latches. The Race Louvers heat extractor for the 99/01 hood looks much better, and will function better.

I attached a stock photo from the Race Louvers site. It looks to fit well, and in the right spot to extract the heat off the radiator. I'm pumped! The only downside is the hood I'm going to get is white, so a full respray will be in order after I get done cutting holes in it, haha!

I built a box to store my rear seat and various other parts in! Cost me about $20 in hardware. All the wood was stuff I had stored in my workshop! Even used some old 1x1 planting posts from the orchard! Ain’t pretty, but it’s functional and fits my need!99DECAEF-03ED-4058-95BE-7DDD9E5D8743.jpeg

Not much..

Tried on my new emblems for kicks but I like it without them better.

Put the front section of side skirt on and mocked up the side skirt.

Lined up the passenger fender the best it will get and took a headlights on pic with the S197. Just need to remove the hood latch and adjust the RH Aerocatch latch some.

Scheming on new retrofitted headlights with demon eyes now, hmm…

I like the contrast in the emblems! They “announce” you but are still subtle. Skip the demon eyes.

My unsolicited $.02 !!

Lined the hood up properly.

Switched to a smoked LED third brake light. More so a “why not” move than anything after spending a small fortune in Sylvania LED bulbs. It blends in nicely.
