    Looks good TJay...I see you have lightening holes on the sides...are you planning to remain as is without a center console to reduce completion weight as well? Love the CF panel! Looks really clean.

    Panel is finally installed! I might swap out the ugly silver placard for a more discreet version.......

    That's beautiful, Mike! Very professional job... you've got "glass" in more ways than one - what kind of finish is that? Very nice. What did you do on the glareshield?

    Gizmos - I really like your's too!

    I should have started to pay more attention to all these works of art in this thread before forging ahead with mine.

    Hi John,

    Thanks for the compliments. I used Ranthane paint for the plane and panel. I set the panel perfectly flat and loaded it up with paint!

    For the glareshield I used black microfiber cloth.
