Weather Spotter- I have been following that build, but his build is definitely a step up from what I had in mind. I'm going to be using metal a lot more in my build. I'm not too confident in my fiber glassing skills and metal is something I know well

2000neon- I may move the ducts closer to the front before the car begins to taper in, but the edison2 VLC did it, and it worked for them. I don't think I'll be doing rear steering, but it is definitely possible.

The biggest problem I've run it to is the front glass. I'm pretty sure I need to use tempered glass my law but I can't find any cars with the right shape glass besides the aptera glass.
