that has to be at least a 18 to 20 inch stretch to fit the 2 stock side panels and have both scoops

I think regardless of anything, some type of rear window should be put on since it makes the car look more proportional - it takes away from the extreme stretch look.

Thanks for the offer, maybe we can arrange something soon. I'm in Mississauga, and if I remember correctly you're not that far. Sounds good to me, I want to see this setup in person!

Im voting for this idea, this has the best look in my opinion. the others i saw still made it look like someone stretched it, this one flows better and looks more natural.
just my opinion
great job Joe, I ve enjoyed watching this beastie progress, youve got a definite showstopper on your hands here. Cant wait to see it completed.

the long wheelbase will kill your turning radius, but man your highspeed stability should be great

only what is nessesary and to keep the engine compartment clean of cluter .
All the nessesary electrical is all hiden and in the rear and will have a diamond plate cover over it all
the beam that runs between the shock towers is where all the electrical is run

Looks good, how about I drop off my GT and you fix it up for me
I think what ever you do it will be a very impressive car.
The white hatch back and spoiler should work out well.
Cant wait to see it finished and going down the road.

This would take some work but I thought I would put it out there. The sail panels have been moved back and the sides elongated. The part by the vents would curve in in the back so the spoiler could go on the outside of the body but not stick out.

Sail panels similar to LilDevil's and chin spolier along with a subtle wing.
Do it.
