While that blue one is indeed gorgeous, As archie said, it's evolved way beyond a Finale roadster to where it might as well be an entirely new body kit. Aside from the doors/scoops, there really isn't much Finale left in it. . . I'd still drive it tho...
I changed the things that bothered me, and extended the front/rear fascia's down, while bringing the sides out instead of having them receed under the body... extended the nice body line from the side scoop over the wheel. Also added some AMG wheels for the hell of it.
I just like throwing out some ideas... unfortunately its not a very clean p/s that I did.
The car bears a striking resemblance to the European Ford Escort xr3i cabrio.. Maybe it is the colour_... fierofetish

I think it is doable. a few added parts and some smoothing doesnt need a complete new kit. Use what you have got.. Here 's a pic I posted in the other thread: needs only 2 little pieces cut and eh some filling.
edit: original pic:
As the Finale's bodyparts are already fiberglass it would be rather easy to do some mods, smoothing or corrections...

While that's a nice, smooth look I can tell you for sure that those tail lights won't pass muster over here since they won't be DOT approved and God knows they won't pass individual state requirements. They might be fine over on the other side of the pond, though.
