Pink foam under the floor boards stops heat and makes the floor feel solid. A second thermal pad has been bonded to the floor for overkill protection.

Alcantara covered sides, carbon-topped tunnel (with Kevlar casing underneath), marine carpet. It's starting to look good.

8Kg front 5Kg rear Swift springs. They're 1Kg less than the last car, and we may go down a bit after testing.

Here's a drawing for a gauge pod for the dash. I'm hoping to print it, prep it and then make a nice mold so it can be replicated in carbon fiber. It should look nice sitting over the carbon tunnel.

It fits, but needs a slight tweak before it's permanent.

Open the trunk and this is what you'll see. The cover hides the gas tank, and adds a small luggage area. Yes, hinge.

I'm toying with the idea of putting the gas cap under the trunk so it stays out of view.

This simple template is the front fender splash guard. It separates the tires fronts from the engine bay and helps direct air.

SpeedHut gauges are NICE! Much nicer than I expected. Machined aluminum bezels are a very nice touch, as is the custom logo. LED's will be RED at night.
