Aaron's SL-C build...

When you are done and you have leftovers I would like to discuss buying one (the scoop). I am ok with the first one. It looks perfect to me. I would more than likely just run it as is with a coat of paint. A way to get rid of the leftovers and recoup some expenses, if you will.

By the way, how do you envision attaching it to the body?

Your timeline. I'm not in any hurry.

No problem Howard. I’m planning to cut mine into the body and glass it in eventually. The final scoop design is made with a flange that matched the surface of the SL-C roof. I’m going to bolt mine initially.
 
Updates....

Full roof scoop 3D printed.
Left-hand side mirror housing created.

Recently, I went through the front brakes on my SL-C and adjusted and changed a few things. I thank Howard for the consulting.
I also added the frit border to the windshield.

I'm still around and have been finalizing and installing various parts on my SL-C.

1) Headliner panel fiberglass mods are done, painted and installed.
2) Center console fiberglass mods are done, painted and installed.
3) Changed the length of the shifter stem slightly to make more clearance to the center console to my fingers.
4) Instrument panel defrost area shape is complete. 3D printed all of the trim parts.
5) A-pillars are in process.


I filled the A/C system today and opened a new rabbit-hole.. A/C blows cold, not enough volume yet so I'm considering opening up the holes coming up through the foot box. I also need to change the A/C condesate hose so that it drops out lower under the floor pan. Now the condensate tracks on the floor pan.
