your uniqueness has never, ever been questioned. 
The car looks sexier than ever man...nice job. The ONLY critique I have is the CF panel over the grab handles...looks a bit like you are trying to hard. Maybe better in person though, huh? Might be time to CF the rest of the console now...so it all blends seamlessly.
Very nice.

but question for you? how much time and effort has it taken you to get your car to where it is right now.
im talking planing, researching, getting parts, test fitting, removing them, reinstalling, and so on.
i assume you've spent more money on the car than yod like to divulge.
and also what are all your mods.

Enzo, my Benzo
yeah, that was my thought too. i said "here you just went a little too far" when i saw it.
but question for you? how much time and effort has it taken you to get your car to where it is right now.

Now don't get all fussed cause I am keeping ONE mod a secret haha
You mean the filler panel for the front plate on the bumper? It was on the car when I bought it. It's OEM, check with the dealer.
Zed, I agree, in fact I did copy your visor idea but still, everyone is doing the same mods I've done and it's my prerogative

I had my interior wood painted a while back...I was sick of the faded, cracked zebrano. The only part I couldn't paint was the part where the CF is now...it was WAY too tough to remove to paint.
As for the CF kit, I am not revealing my source at the moment. Everyone seems to do the same mods here and I want to keep SOME level of uniqueness...Sorry!

It's not George, Matt...he's too unreliable. As for other CF dash stuff, you gotta be careful not to overdo it or it will look tacky.
Phamster, post pics! What the eff?? lol
bjay, thanks for the compliments! RE: the km's, it's a new spedometer, had 2k on it when I bought the car in 02 (60k in 6 yrs aint bad haha) The total is around 180,000 kms (111k miles)

It's not going to be an overlay however.
Every wood piece is getting sanded down with CF layed over.
CF prices FTMFL at the moment.

i now drive a ford p71 i also own a 1988 ford f150 lariat
i love all the cars on here.i can not think of one to pick and put in my favs.
not even my car and i nap in my car all day some times. all i got to say is being different or having a car that is special is nothing bad nor is not telling people where you got your parts.

Car looks fantastic Zorro. I think what you've done with the grille is perfect- It's a great balance between that "custom" and the original look. It ties into the rest of the car much more seamlessly.
You make me wish I bought a black or charcoal colored 124. There's no way for me to make a champagne w124 look very sporty! lol
