    Find a hardtop. You can try mine on to see how you like it. I think once you try it your going to have to get one though:nice: Paint it black, Ryan G style

    500 bills for 6 parts. Now i need to visit the stealership to get those plastic expanding rivets to put the bumper skins back on the cores.

    Got the swap stuff from the paint shop today. I was fairly impressed with the work in general. I have gone to this place in the past for my painting needs.

    Heres all the parts but the tech 1 fiberglass insert which i quickly took to my room for assembly.



    A shot of the Mtech 2 replica rear valence and the IS lip.



    Did a fairly good job taking the dent out of the front bumper



    I will probably have another update tonight when i put the mtech wing back together.

    I think another permutation (sp?) of this equation is: cabby=cabriolet=volkswagen cabriolet=volkswagen rabbit=CHICK CAR=FTL

    My dad had a Mk3 cabrio for a while. had a basketcase auto tranny that kept dying though. But I was young so i thought it was cool at the time.

    Good progress Josh! Keep up the good work, and when you're done let me know. We'll do a proper photoshoot with our cabbys.
