Overall, the job was well done. There are a few smudges on the stripes, front and rear, right where the midline groove is, since the tape was apparently hard to keep down in the small radium of the groove. The stripes were apparently a major PITA to paint on, because of all the parts to measure and make everything line up properly.

The Racing Beat Type I wing sits too low and the edges hit the top of the fenders, so I need to add another ~1/8" gastket to raise it up higher off the trunk lid.

The grills in the front and back were cheaply and quickly put into place. Currently, it is black, "square", chicken wire material, but I will be putting in some better diamond shaped mesh.

The BSP duals look even more crooked now, so that will be next in line to be fixed.
