A good quality donor: Kip Ewing in this case, gage cluster and Binnacle :biggrin
One good surgeon-Kendall
One contortionist/surgeon-Ryan

Ahh the magic begins:

Kips CF Binacle (nice touch, thanks Kip :thumbsup)

I almost had a heart attack watching her get naked, but thanks to Kendall and Ryan at Cool Tech LLC, the car came out of their garage without a scratch. The care and attention to details from the surgeons when they performed the operation was simply top notch-Thanks again guys :thumbsup, now I just need to keep my eyes off the Carbon Fiber and on the road:biggrin

There is no way on earth those are Kendalls legs in that overhead shot. I've seen Kendall at the local swimming pool and his thighs are much heftier than that.:biggrin:biggrin:biggrin

In all seriousness though, I think that is a beautiful addition to your car. Congrats.

looks awesome.....you were smart getting someone else to do it for you. I did mine myself and can honestly say that I hope I never have to do that again! But the end result is definitely worth it. Kips stuff is top notch....I'm fighting the door panel urge now.

You know, Kendall was great, he even told me that you gave him the frame by frame picture tip. He then put his laptop on the passenger seat and frame by frame he re-installed the units, I mean even down to the orientation of the zip ties that hold the wiring harness, and she barely resisted. So he did give credit where due. Thanks for giving him the tip "Shadowman". What a great F-GT community. :thumbsup

Kip's stuff is great! We did the gauges and door panels while the GT Guys had the car this spring.
