Thanks! I really like how it looks. And believe it or not, it's probably 1/4 of the weight of the plastic one. I'm not even going to pretend that I got this for any kind of weight reason, though. Haha!

OMG....OMG....That looks sweet. I want to stop by and see it. I think that's gay it came with velcoro. They couldn't just poke 2 holes in it and a couple of gromets or whatever. Congrats. If it's missing one day with your corners....I'll let you know from now...It wasn't....Me. ;)

It don't say Renesis or nothing though. :(

Looks real good. Gotta hook up the rest of the covers with some carbon fiber to match.

That's in the plans, too. Although there's a company working on getting these made. Right now, there isn't anything out there for the covers unless I want to use vinyl.

Thanks. IPT no longer exists, and I don't think anyone else makes them.

Thanks!

Interior won't be seeing much work, although I am planning some minor stuff. I had to jump on the engine cover while I could, as there aren't many floating around. As it is, I've already redesigned my mount, just need to take care of that tomorrow. Now that I thought of doing it the new way, I wish I wouldn't have hacked apart the stock one! Oh well, that can be easily fixed.

On that front, nothing new yet. I still haven't figured how to fabricate the new box. I know, I know...fiberglass, but I've never worked with it before.
