| I dont like the big scoop on the hood or the other intakes. Part of the attraction of the Riviera's design is how clean it is. Everything else that is being done to this car is cleaning it up further. | |

| I may want a set as well. I am highly intrigued. I'm uncertain about what the front will end up looking like. Someone earlier - I think Corey - designed this front bumper in Photoshop: Maybe you could do it like that. | |

| just wondering. as im sure you know fiberglass can crack, and isnt quite as strong as urethane bumpers per say. do you plan on making a urethane bumper mold or what. very nice work i must say
Also from the pics its hard to tell. are you using fiberglass cloth or fiberglass mat | |

| Thanks guys. No plans on urethane. The material used is fiberglass mat. | |

I have been unable to find them on line. Are they a discontinued wheel, that you know of ? Where did you get them ? Have been unable to find any TSW in a 5 X 115 Bolt Pattern | |

| I like the elliptical motif to the lower grill as well as the understated spoiler. Real RIV!
Keep going. | |
