    Went back to review your exhaust routing again for my as-yet-too-embryonic-to-discuss project, it'll work nicely...but I would suggest, if you haven't already considered it, at least a good ceramic coat on that crossover pipe under the damper, and maybe some kind of heat shield, to keep the rubber in your damper in one piece.

    The trunk lid skin you made was amazing, very well done and thought out. I like the way you used the shrinker on the edges to form the curve rather than trying to dial it in some other way, believe it or not most people dont think like that lol. Are you using a pullmax make your louvers or just some other sort of machine you made?
