Wow that looks excellent! Someone come and do that to mine!!
Although there's something wrong with the headrests, they just don't like right.
As for the car in question - looking really good!
ROCK ON

Thanks guys ya im really happy with its turn out. Grant about the wheels no i cant push them out any more. The issue is their width that is the problem. running 15 offfset was a little bit low. Iw ill get it to work though. YA the interior is along the lines of race spec. I have a pair of sparco seats 4-point harness a full cage well just in the car doesn't go into trunk and bay(yet). Very clean all black and then for the back seat issue i figured screw it. Sooo there are two 15"s in place of the back seat. SOunds great.  talk about headaches
SOoo i will get more pics soon. Thanks again guys.

I agree that they knew what they were doing designning the car. I personaly like the way the car looks without it and think the car looks way different in person. It is almost unrecognizable. Speak of the body lines there were body lines made when it had the body work done. If you look above the rear fender the top line closets to the trunk did not exist before, it was a recess where the black trim sat.AlfaNewB yes there are two 15 inch subs where the back seat was.They sounds great if you dont sit there full blast for long period oftime. Thanks again for everyones feedback it should be done shortly with more pics.

- I am intrigued and want to know more!
As to the original car, I think it is a shame that you are ditching the side-lines, they really offset that chunky, slab-like look any car with these dimensions have... Otherwise, I think it is a good effort

Yes I am going to cruise traffic in a stick, without air, no power steering.  It should be fun.well thanks again for the feedback. I just finally got the seat bolted in tonight and got the exhaust complete. SO the checklist is getting shorter.

I like it! Looks awesome. I actually love the way it looks without the black trim... Just my opinion. Wouldn't take it off on mine, but I like the way it looks on yours. Killer wheels too, I hope all your issues get resolved.
Two 15" subs? That's a little overkill, don't you think? But bragging rights...
Why no power steering or air? Any reason?

Thanks i appreciate it. Sooo its coming down to having the back face of the wheel machined. I have switched the tire size to a 205 instead of the 215 and i hope things will clear after that. Also have given the car negative camber in the front to help assist the clearence. Soo about my lack there of air and power steering. I did it so i wouldn't have two other pumps on the engine: Also because i didn't want to have to service either due to the price. Ya and the subs are kind of a bragging right but they sound clear and crisp and and can be loud. So ya it also is a lil overkill.

That's what I figured. And now you're getting more out of your engine!
And hey, subs are awesome. What kinds are they? If they're some Kicker L5 squares I might have to come steal one...

What do you mean the width is the problem? 75evo has run a 16 X 7.5 wheels with a 225/50 tire on it. He has stock fenders, non-verde flairs! Are you sure the offset is 15? If that were the case, you would be having no issues whatsoever with rubbing on the inside fender.
Unless you mean rubbing on the inside of the fender....which would make sense with a 15 offset.
