Thanks Panel! I think Jake and I have made a pretty good team during this whole build-up process.

Now, about the Line-X adding weight. Yes, it does add some weight.....though I'm not really sure how much. Of course, the vert weighs a friggin ton anyway. But, when you guys see what's under the decklid, you'll understand why a little extra weight won't really matter :raiseroof

Looks great. The sound damping effect will be good too. :agree:

The line- X added about 50 pounds to the car, but we are not concerned with this car being a little "Heavy". Beth is going to drive the car as a primary vehicle, so it's important that it's quiet as possible inside and the Line -X is certainly very good at that! I had them lay it on very thick in the rear of the cabin and in the engine bay and another heavy does in the floor pans.

She'll have a ton of power to spare, even with the added weight...

Wait till you see what we have up our sleeves for this baby!

Looking real good! I like the line-x.

I am sure power will be no problem.
