More than likely.

Gotcha --- I thought with the painted darker roof it was already done.

Not yet. Just vinyl wrap cause of the peeling original paint.

Once I start the carbon work I will for sure get more pics.

Don't think I've seen your project before. I'll have to go back and give it a read because it looks epic!

It's a wild ride for sure.

Hell yeah, I love this project and am stoked that you're continuing to develop it!

This checks all the boxes for me. Hell yes! We definitely need more detail shots of the roof!

Still alive and kicking. Got out on Friday when the weather broke a bit. More pics coming later.

Well, it’s been forever since I updated here. Mostly I just drive the Amazon around and spend my efforts on my other projects, but I’ve done a couple things. First off, the paint failed on the roof between the OEM paint and the OEM colored paint that was applied at some point in it’s life. This is a risk you run when you don’t strip down to bare metal. For now I just feathered out the delaminating area and vinyl wrapped the roof. Next, I started down the path of V2.5.5 by converting the front hubs (rears will be done soon) to 5x100 (so I can retain one of the 4x100 lug holes) and installing the new brake setup and air ride. The rotor hats are for a Mini Cooper and have the correct offset and almost the correct center bore. Just needs a small hub ring. The calipers are rear calipers off of a Tesla Model S performance. These aren’t the final version wheels or tire size (tires are close though). Right now the tires are crashing pretty hard, but I’m pretty sure more trimming, welding and painting will get me there. As a refresher, here’s the rendering of what my goal is (although, now it’s likely to have a carbon roof as well). Maybe there’ll be some track days in it’s future.

The current forum is really slow, it's actually painful - but James is working on a fix to swap us over to a different software with better support and performance.

Is there any update for this? I still get all the notifications through Tapatalk, but it’s dreadful to try and get anything to work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
