FWIW, and I haven't taken possession of my car yet:

A few summers ago I sold my Lotus Elise, which didn't have a lift kit. You would be amazed at the number of larking lot entrances just waiting to take a bite out of your front clam. It's a piece of kit I would highly recommend getting.

I opted for the body fitment/aperture cutouts to be done by RCR. I figure that I've already got my hands full with just learning about the rest of the build, and don't need the extra work.

Don't forget to add in at least 10% (conservatively speaking) to the total cost of your build. You'll spend it...trust me.

Cf interior kit is really nice, and I've seen it for myself. Again, is it within your budget? If you add up the cost of covering the glass with leather, how far over or under the cost of the CF are you? Not to mention, it's another time saving deal.

I ordered both the front and rear fender vents in CF (I believe they also make glass vents), but it's strictly for the looks in my case.

I bought the Tillet seats because I had them in my Lotus, and they were exceptionally comfortable (plus, they look the cat's meow). Warning....they aren't cheap. I would think that you could do some pad inserts on the OEM seats, which would not only look good, but would save some money.
