Shhhh... They'll never know that it's missing... they have dark lighting in their display

A few weeks ago I went to a local place called Accurate Screen which do every possible screen known to mankind. I brought in detailed photos and measurements of the openings so that we could find screen that would be the right scale. The results are seen in the pictures below. Nice circle perforated screen and really accurate screen for the side intake vents

These were the reference photos we used from some behind the scenes pictures of the hero car sent to me by a tour guide a few years ago

I went out to the garage after dinner tonight and started on the side speaker boxes. I was actually able to make some pretty good progress on the driver's side

Another productive afternoon completing the driver's side speaker box and about 90% of the fabrication for the passenger side.

The passenger side just needs some mounting points, body filler and primer. Then we'll be good to go!

A couple more items knocked off of the TODO List!

I finished up the front bumpers and the bottom skidplates to help protect the bumper when entering driveways

Tim since your hood system for opening seems to be very complicated have you thought about using the truck hinge opening from the back like Jay did on his builds?

The tricky part right now is that in order to fit the car in my garage I need to remove the hood. I'm looking at ways to extend my garage door so that I don't have to do this long term, but for now I need to hoist it to fit

I picked up some different headlights for the BatBerry which are from an 88-89 Honda Civic.

These ones actually fit unlike the old ones and are brand spanking new!

After many, many hours I finally have some mesh backing the trunk vents.

All that is left to do is to seal their backing material into the trunk lid so that everything is water tight!
