| I've been lazy lately but here is a little update. My windshield is on backorder so I won't have it until the end of this month which sucks. Sprayed my rotors with high temp caliper paint so they don't look like crap from rusting anymore.  Aluminum 11ga battery tray I made for the car. Not the best welds tig welding but i'm getting there.    Also made a aluminum plate for my fuel cell to take the place of the washers holding the unit down. They weren't doing a good jop of sealing it evenly.  Gauges are mounted with the cage pods. Just have to figure out what to do with the wires to make it look cleaner.   |

| you could paint a small piece of metal electrical conduit that clamps to your cage in a similar fashion as your gauges. drill a couple holes in the conduit and a few rubber grommets later, you can have some clean wiring that gets plumbed to wherever you put it. Similar to wiring a bike frame but not using the roll cage to do so. |

| It took awhile but I managed to find a actual carbon fiber rear view mirror. Found it on ebay and looks like it was specially made.   |

| Nice. LOL that bracket looks like it weighs more than the mirror itself. |

| Looks good, man!
Any chance I could get you to make me a battery tray like that for my lil battery? Nothing fancy, I just want to be able to put a couple bolts through it to mount to the factory bolt holes. I'd throw you some loot. |

| I've been up to a little lately. Rear view mirror is now mounted.   Painted some stuff gun metal gray.   Mounted some of my gadgets with the help of some carbon fiber chunks I had laying around.    Reworking my exhaust a bit. This will now take place of the 02 housing and it branches to my exhaust cutout. Not the pretiest and still needs to be finished but it will be heat wraped yet to help keep temperatures down.  Did some misc things as well but its starting to get there. Shooting for this coming sunday to have it on the road. |
