I will post up more pics at it starts to come along the way I would like it to but here is some nice before and after shots.

A few months back...

stock block full prepped head. Some people like the spoiler some people hate it but in my case at least it surves a function. I didnt like it at first but it has grown on me to the point where the stock wing looks retarded to me.

the sound deadener is a total pita and i wouldnt suggest removing it unless your very very board. if you do decide to do it use a bunch of dry ice and have a bunch of different sized chisels. Then a bunchof paint thinner or goof off and a ton of rags.
