Here are the final set of pictures after service was completed. Fully assembled she looked strange to me and that's probably because I'd gotten used to seeing her parts stripped off over the past week.

I'm not greedy, i'll take the GT3RS in the background.

Great shots of the CGT! Such a beautiful car...especially in Fayence! Is this Kuzi's new car?

All that just for a cf shift knob...

Your wish is thy command, sire.

This is one of the best threads I've seen in an automotive section on here. Nice work Jason.

I have to admit there is so much more to this car than I ever imagined so I truly have a new appreciation for the GT and for it's owner, allowing all of those beautiful painted parts to sit on the ground. But I have to agree w/ Achenator, I'd be beyond stoked with the RS.

Unreal Pics.
