Hi,
I'm new here. But I thought you might like to see what I've been up to lately. Seems a lot of people are interested in this kit.
But anyway, here is a link the whole process, and there are lots of pictures and a video in my signature.
I guess there are licensing issues so they don't call it an "Eleanor" kit.

B.E.A.utiful!
Is that her daily driver?
If so how far does she drive?
I thought about doing this to my car but I don't know being that mine's a daily driver and in HEAVY Atlanta traffic!
Looks like you haven't dropped it (from the back), and I'm not saying you should b/c the thing looks so low in the front now, but just curious.
I'm curious about speed bumps and pot holes ripping the front fascia off.

Thanks for all the positive remarks everyone.
Believe it or not, that is her "everyday but snow days" driver.
She has about a 30 mile one-way commute. DC area traffic is pretty heavy too, but she works an alternate shift.
We haven't lowered it, I don't think we can and still keep it as a daily driver.
Speed bumps hit the exhaust tips where they go under the frame of the car. And I hit the front fascia pulling into a gas station too fast. Luckily, I didn't to any damage, but it sure sounded rough.

So the kit was $3660 for the kit
+ ? for grills/fogs?
+ $1050 for paint
+ ? for wheels/tires
---------------------------
Another question, are you going to do rocker stripes?
The window scoops, do they cause a blind spot and how do they look from standing at the front of the car?
Some pics they look good, others they look like they stick out too much
---------------------------
Sry to keep asking questions

I didn't like the Raceline GT wheels so I put the imatation 07 Shelby wheels on. I got them for $239 a piece, but I've seen them for $203 since I ordered these. I got the tires from TireRack.com for about $800 total.
So grand total we're looking at about $6000. I could have held off on the wheels and tires, but it just didn't look right with the stock 05 GT rims on it. Besides the stock tires are too darn skinny anyway.

I gotta say amazing job! There seems to be a slight gap below each headlamp though, is that in the design or a missed clip 
Otherwise.. Very sweet, and a great job on the stripes!
