Henry, IIRC, I received this kit in May 2012, so yeah, I think I've been more than patient with this. I have to thank Lawrence at Signature Autobody in Orange, CA for working with me on such a detail oriented project. I know there are a lot of bodyshops in Southern CA - but for those in the Orange County area, he is the best I've ever worked with.

I'm back!

Majority of the Mode Parfume Aero is installed (still missing rear carbon spoiler) thanks to my good friends over at Signature Autobody in Orange.

Back on the grind, Yen is back to almost 100 per $1USD - should be ordering new wheels soon and just received my KBreak Zero Custom Front Grille this afternoon

Yeah, reminded me a bit of the JP Grille on the 2GS, and I have no time to try and make my own grille. To be honest, I have no idea what the material it is - it literally just arrived from Japan yesterday and I haven't had a chance to make my way over there yet.

Completed? No idea, but hopefully this year.

Not sure how much more I want to do with this car, but I do have a few more things I need to get installed before I would consider this close to done.

There really isn't a process other than finding someone that can help you buy/bring things over from Japan.
