Finally took it out for a spin today to see how it drives. Love the sound of the saleen blower, but my other car feels slow to me now at close to 700 rwhp. So jumping in one with mid 400s feels like a turd. Sounds cool though. Think I decided to do a cs front bumper. Gonna get some paint and a bumper ordered next week.

Subbed.

Is the Glass Roof cracked? CDC does not produce their kit anymore. I know the replacement roofs are pretty damn expensive.

Regular roof would be cheaper but That was such a sweet option I just cant let it go. Gonna have to fix it.

I almost can't blame you. It is pretty cool, maybe just ponder salvage yards while you're fixing it up. You could also remove the roof entirely for the time being and have a semi-targa top. That would be badass....

Wow wish I would have seen that come up for sale.

Would ford charge 2400 to put a glass roof in a non GR car or just for the replacement?

Unfortunately there aren't any salvage yards around that ever get anything like this close by me. Done a lot of body work to passenger side today Ill shoot some pics later. Since Im not doing a color change Im getting windshield put in Wednesday and Ill just tape it off when spraying. Hopefully have passenger side done and in primer in a couple days.

Some progress pillar is ready for primer. Took a lot of studs to pull that out. Rocker is welded in gonna get it all flat and straight tomorrow hopefully. California special front bumper arrived today. Might throw some color on that thing tomorrow. Painted drivers fender and door today the one I bought was black so had to paint both sides. Spoiler and rocker moldings got color as well.
