two small updates. I redid the front mesh because it didnt look 100% perfect. Also ripped off the vinyl 'LOTUS' lettering on the back and replaced it with a badge...

Looks great Ryan, and those pics are insane. Looking forward to seeing more of this thing next semester. I really, really wouldn't mind one of these someday; yours and other examples have really put these in my sights lately...hmmm....

Re: Project Elise - Madden - 08-09-2009

spent my time getting taking care of some stuff that was really bugging me.
Filled the license plate holes that the idiot first owner drilled as well as getting the scrapes on the bottom filled. I also had a crack in the fron that got re worked, and resprayed the hole front to get it looking good as new. Also put new cams in becuase the original ones were looking pretty beat up. The headlight covers also got replaced with some new ones that werent as scratched up. I also managed to destroy my front splitter on a squirrel, so a new splitter is in the mail along with some carbon interior parts. hopefully itll be back together before school starts

Re: Project Elise - fiveoh2go - 10-05-2009

IMO the CF gives the interior a finished, completed look. Nice. :thumbup:

Re: Project Elise - JustinG - 10-05-2009

yea the CF definately makes a difference, tastefully dresses it up on the inside. what was there? plastic or alumnium trim?

Re: Project Elise - Madden - 10-05-2009

I always like the carbon door sills in carrera gts and lambos so when i say the pronounced sills in this car it was something i really wanted to do. before it was all plastic.
Matt, the guy that did it is on SVTP and is working on a lot of terminator parts right now so I'm anxious to see what those look like.

What caused the cam wear? How many miles does your car have on it?

Cool. What does he go by on SVTP? I'll look him up.

Re: Project Elise - DavidL - 10-05-2009

I still want to do a photoshoot! As I have said every time.. looks awesome!

Re: Project Elise - WRXtranceformed - 10-05-2009

That carbon fiber looks awesome man. I know this sounds weird, but you might consider some kind of clear protectant, almost like a car bra on it. The sills in my car get a little beat up from people getting in and out and lightly scraping their shoes on it, you can imagine how easily that could happen to the carbon fiber.

That would be awesome, I am definitely down. Let me get my new diffuser and exhaust on, I really appreciate it, I would love to do a shoot!

its not weird because I already have some clearbra I'm waiting to put on. Just waiting 30days for the clear to degass before I put it on :thumbup:

Re: Project Elise - fiveoh2go - 10-05-2009

Thanks for the link. What made you go with the black CF? Quickly scanning the SVTP link I saw that he's offering a black/orange CF weave.....could be interesting.

Either way, your car looks killer. 8)

Re: Project Elise - Steve85 - 10-06-2009

Wow, that CF really looks at home in the minimalist interior. :thumbup:

Re: Project Elise - Evan - 10-08-2009

Fair warning: If you leave your car unattended at next spring's car show, your CF interior will be gone.
