To be honest I didnt like that hood until I saw what you did with yours. I might still go with the other vented option I am still so up in the air. Seibon really messed up all of my plans lol

Anyway car is looking really good

The fit and the finish of the Seibon Vented Carbon Fiber and their trunk is really nice. Honestly I think the hood is what set of our rocket bunny build. It gives the car that aggressive character to match the widebody.

Check out the new tail lights sent to me by Spyder Auto. Love them. Can't wait to see their JDM inspired headlights they are coming out with soon as well.



Also the car will be drivable tomorrow for the first of many photo shoots.

DTM Autobody has been working overtime to get the car drivable.

Side skirt trimmed and flushed with the fender so I can turn full lock to lock now without any rubbing



BRZ vents are in



Had the lines of the carbon fiber trunk match the spoiler mounts.

And the look was ruined by the stickers, they looked terrible. Other than that good looking car man

So the wheels are -25 offset front and rear?

I did not weigh the stock hood or the Seibon vented hood. IMO they should be very close in weight since the stock hood is aluminum. Honestly I choose the vented hood over appearance then weight savings. I wanted something more wild to match the new rocket bunny widebody.

It looks awesome, I was just wondering if there was anyone making hoods that saved a bunch of weight too..
