This car will be buried with me.

Yeah that's the plan... then Sheptrans if I can find a way to squeeze that in. I will be driving this thing back to Chicago at the end of July so that should make an interesting trip.

I would say, but the people that are doing it (multiple shops) don't normally work on this sorta of thing. They primarily do race (Sebring/Rolex for Porsche, Ferrari, etc.) My best friend has been racing for years so when something goes Hiroshima.... he helps me out.

*Update New Parts*
-AMS Master Cylinder Upgrade
-Cusco Catch Can
-AEM Oil Temp Gauge
This is the train wreck at the moment.... The sad part is the body is all jacked up. Carbon destroyed basically and reclaimed water baked all over the car. Straight up looks like someone pissed on it. At least that can be buffed out.
I have been told that there is no chance for the carbon repair. Anyone have the slightest hope that this can be "somewhat" repaired? i.e. re-clear coated with minor flaws where sun got down to carbon and yellow tint removed? I am not looking for "perfect" just not this haha
If not, obviously I am not going to trash it all, so if anything... I'll just drive this busted *** hooptie looking X around for the time being

**UPDATE**
So like I said months before... luck does not run on my side, time constraints and other **** came up.. hopefully I will have this car shipped out tomorrow to Titan Motorsports to complete the build and have it tuned. Need some luck passed over my way because this has been one long *** road... This car is cursed and I refuse to give in. I WILL drive the **** out of her!

Aiming towards getting another FMIC (other was crap) looking at 4" ETS but I want to do gold, what are your thoughts ? I figured it would look clean with the gold Volks and everything else...
