that looks awesome!! How's the noise level? How do you like the fitment in the rear of the car with the panels?

Don't know about noise level yet, just finished, car is up on jack stands still, need to do a bit of motor maintenance and then because of some suspension work I did, need to redo bump steer on all four wheels plus alignment...

Fitment is really good, only some VERY minor trimming in a couple places that I would attribute to car to car production tolerances... the real fun was installing the tubs with the roll bar... installed them on the downcomers before welding them to the main hoop for a seemless install... all in all, time consuming, but I like how it came out...

Removed the wheel spacers and installed MM low profile bolts. I just couldn't get used to the rear wheels sticking out so far.

Looks great, is that paint missing on the underside of the hood?

Pretty sure it's, some of it looks blackish Would love to get it done someday. I pulled the insulation a year ago and that's how it looked.

Don't envy the California emissions crap. But envy the weather you guys get. Good luck with the interview.

If seems hit or miss. Some have the whole underside painted, while others not. I got lucky, but mine still doesn't look great.

Yeah that's what I've heard as well. They definitely skimped in the middle there.

Mine wasn't painted either. I bought some rattle can and sprayed mine. Looks good. I have one pic of it somewhere but the car went in the shop not too long after that and hasn't been out long enough for a pic before it went right back in. I just covered everything with old drop sheets for painting, taped off the rest and went to town. Cost me like $50.00 I think. You should look into it

It actually looks good being rattle canned?

Thats the problem with this thread is its so long that you'll never find anything in it. There was a page where I posted my custom home done VMP cover, and at the same Time Bdubbs, Blueline, and several others posted their VMP covers. Good luck ever finding it in there though. lol.
