Great job Scott! Wasn't sure I would like it when I saw pictures during the process, But that is really sweet. It gives the car a bolder look. Again, GREAT JOB!!!

sqrivi,
I know this isn't the place to ask, but I'm going to anyway.
Can't remember the title of the other thread. What about an update on your killer interior as well. How far along are you with that. How about some pic's.
Beautiful work on the exterior. Looking forward to the rest.

i wonder how it would look if the rear bumper would have been wider from the lip, so the tyres would havr not showed out so much. Also it wouldent throw so much dirt on the rear bumper as it does on the riv's.Also exhaust tips more on side centre of the tips whit the line of the trunklid.
Photoshop anyone?happy hope you all get what i meant.

Awesome! Love the color. Isn't it Black Saffire Pearl or something?

I am glad you got these done and out of the way. Now we need pics of your interior build to keep those of us trapped up north nice and warm through the winter. How is it coming?

Looks great, but I'd like to see more profile view pictures, especially the front, taken from a good distance away to see the overall effect.

I love how in this picture, the house's reflection makes it look like the Riv has an integrated deck spoiler that starts in the rear quarter panel:

ya know, you're right... That would be amazing if the rear quarter looked like that reflection... Unique.. I've never seen on a car before, not quite a spoiler, but flows with the trunk lip out its flank...

I thought the exact same thing the first time I saw this pic.Ikept my mouth shut so in the future I could fab the 1/4 panels like that and take credit for it. I guess I am selfish. Thanks IBx1 for letting the cat out of the bag.
