    Looks good!!

    Rear wing looks good, but seems a tad wide. Perhaps it was intended for a car with wide(r) rear fenders??

    How fast is "ungodly fast" ??

    Is that condensation in the drivers side headlight cover?

    Question

    Are those the same front mesh grill covers MYNSX has on his car?

    Thanks for the complements guys:

    Cojones, the wing is the Burn-up wing. It can be used with either stock or wide bodies. The only pix of cars I have seen it installed on have all had stock rear quarters. Ungodly fast? I ran 11.99 @ 119 in a 1/4......not Ungodly fast but quick IMO.

    Lud, good eye. That is condensation. The fixed buckets are not sealed, and have a tendency to collect water after being washed. It takes about 5 minutes to take the covers off and wipe underneath of them--I just didn't get around to it before taking these pix.......I'll try to do better next time ;-) It is a flaw in the design.

    Michigan, yes the grills are the ones sold by "the grill guys" in AZ. They required some manipulation to fit, but seem to stay in place well.

    musclemarinara2, the car has has the Wings West front lip, Grills by the "Grill-guys", Catz fogs, Raybrig HID's with Pop CF buckets, Burn-Up hood, Marga-Hills (Vinny's version 2.0) side steps, Marga-Hills rear diffuser, Wings West rear spats, and a Burn-Up Wing.

    Smoore, all of the paint and body work was done by Vinny at All Cars in Merritt Island, FL--VERY nice work, Vinny.

    Thanks for the complements,

    Ben

    Does anyone have any contact info for the Grill Guys or a website address. Also are the pieces for the front bumper special order or available off the shelf.

    What is Vinnys Version 2 Marga Hill Side Steps? Is this different than the original MH side steps.

    Thanx

    How much manipulation? Any special tools required? Please elaborate as I am extremely interested in getting these grills. Thanks!

    NSX2NV, the number for the grill guys is 480 628-5310, ask for Shane, he got me mine. The price was $200, and I had mine in about a week +/-. They are made of stainless steel. The center section required some trimming with some heavy snips that I had (regular tin snips probably would not cut it--no pun intended). It really wasn't too much effort, probably took an hour to obtain correct fitment for the center section. I trimmed the sides only minimally--about 5 minutes to install the sides. They fit by simple compression--no screws or permanent fixtures required.

    Vinny is manufacturing fiberglass marga hills skirts that fit better than the original--keeping the door foot plate intact. They really do fit much better than any marga hills origninal that I have seen. He owns All Cars Auto Body. You can call him to purchase the skirts at 321 453 6969. He will even paint them to match prior to shipment.

    Happy motoring, everyone.

    Ben
