Great color combo and really clean build. I missed what you were using for the carpet and head liner, they look perfect. Was the shifter something you put together or is that from an after market supplier ?

Thanks everyone!!!!

 

The carpet and headliner if flocking from Kens fuzzy fur...The shifter is from Futurattraction also.. All my stuff I get is from http://xtremescaledetail.com/

Just wanted to say thanks again everyone and to update on this....

 

Be on the lookout for it under glass in about 2 days or so...Had to replace the scoop on it and while trying to do that,I broke the hood.... get all that fixed and new can of paint,was totally diff shade but ended up finding another can with the same batch number as the first can... This build has deff fought  me on the last stretch but got everything done and drying right now....

 

And to beat it all,it was being built for the Atlanta show this weekend which it is gonna make it...
