Default s13 build and tuck

This is the shops new mascot. When this gets done, you guys will see alot of it at the meets and events. And for all the haters.... its nowhere near done. this thread will be loaded w/ pics from start to finish. I will format them differently once i figure that out. right now im working on the engine and bay. If anybody has stainless brake and clutch lines for sale, lmk.

the shaving was only the the holes. i left all the factory creases and bends. i didnt realize it was so bad til the clear was on it. The clear really brings it out
