    I don't know, I am sure that will happen but if I am right this car will serve multiple purposes...

    Going well, thanks for asking.

    Updates:
    -Working on the final stages of the carbon brake kit, I have full specs on the front and rear with all prototype brackets and rotor hats, now waiting on production to replicate what its done. I would probably get all parts anodize on black when is all finish.

    -Got the steering wheel back, it was reshape, re-padded and reupholster on black, red alcantara and perforated leather.

    -I have decided to work on some aero parts to get the car track ready, a rear carbon wing, front air splitter and some canards; likely to seek GT4 specifications. Some of you may hate this modifications.

    I know you didn't ask for opinions, but I absolutely love everything except the rear spoiler and front splitter. If you must do the splitter, I'd suggest pulling it in at least 2"

    I appreciate the feedback, on the front splitter is it because of it's aggressiveness or just difficult to daily drive?

    Amazing and interesting project!

    I daily drive a 2012 GT MC (US version). I'm sure its like most GT's. The front end is LOW and LONG.
    last thing I'd want is a bigger lower front spoiler to hit a curb or cement parking barrier with!
    but it will look cool!

    I guess it really depend what we all call daily driving. I live 1.5 miles from my office, don't get to drive on a highway often, mostly small city downtown driving.
    I daily drive just about every car I own; mostly exotics among Murcielago LP640, Challenge Stradale and 360 Challenge.
    Maybe the GT-S with a crazy looking front splitter would be over the top; we'll see.

    Amazing work!

    (The new front splitter is MUCH better). Well done! Keep it coming.

    Nice! ... And looks like something you could actually live with on normal roads.

    Great job and very imaginative - I think you made the right decision to cut the front splitter back some - don't want to be really limited on where you can drive

    Finally got the wheels from Ben at Wheels Boutique in Miami.
    HRE P101 all custom engineer and cut for the car.

    front: 10" x 19" - 22 lbs with Pirelli PZERO Corsa 285/35/19
    rear: 12" x 20" - 25.5 lbs. with Pirelli PZERO Corsa 335/30/20

    I went to HRE as it was difficult to fit the 394 mm brakes into a 19" wheel on a monoblock; I am very please with the results.
