        This is the goal of my car's final appearance, except I am going to go yellow.

        Are you using the late model trim around the windows and windshields, or did you get them all done in black? It's a nice fresh look to the early cars' exteriors in my opinion.

        Oh, and those are Schmidt TH-lines, right? Hoping I remembered correctly.
        The trim is original just shadowlined, and yes TH lines.

        Thanks everyone!

                  Looks great, but Im confused why you would want a S52 engine when your car is that low. seems like a dangerous combo. Plus I picture a clean ass M20 in there looking 10x better than the plastic covered motor. And those missing clips can be found in the classifieds. Im sure if the seller knew what car they were going on they would just give them to you for free

                        I drive at a height that allows me to enjoy the power the car has. And lift higher when entering steep areas, and air it out when parked. Basically the point of air ride. The motor is also raised to the point of a tad higher than where the original m20 pan sat. And yeah I know it's missing plastic here and there, just been lazy haha. I can understand people liking the m20, and while it's cool, I prefer the cleanliness, reliability, and power of the s52. But that's just me.

                        Thanks for the comments man.
