Came in second place(the worst place) http://www.quimerarr.com/artcontest/

Other than that, if anyone has a spare OEM trunk they are willing to part with I will compensate you reasonably.
-Working on custom trunk setup,
-Still figuring out Mirrors
-May start hacking up hood
-Bought fiberglass fenders for custom wide setup
-Sell wheels, buy new ones

Good job on the chop I hate those fenders though. Accolade has a really bad rep due to fitment issues.

^+1000

BTW I have a very similar list to yours. I just do not have your skills to do it myself. The rear lip spoiler I have been working since forever looks like dog crap. I have a few designs in my head on how to cut up the hood. And have been doing some photo chops on flares. And waiting to buy new wheels. And all the other crap I need to do for turbo...

Lots of stuff going on including learning how to lay composites,,,
But in the mean time this is what Ive been up to in the last two weeks,
I entered Stillen's contest to design a lip kit for the FRS,
The top five designs will chosen in house, the deadline is tomorrow, once the top five are chosen they will post on FB to get a popular vote to that will be a large factor in what kit is produced, here is my work,,,
