What'd you end up doing with the fuel lines? Re-used the stock lines and ran rubber fuel injection hose from the tank to the stock lines. The end towards the back of the tunnel. Used the stock line clips and mounted them to the frame in the tunnel.

Do you have any more pictures of the wing on the car? Also what did you end up using for the fuel filler? The car looks great. I didn't get a chance to get the car out of the garage but took a couple more pics of the wing for you. If there's anything in particular your looking for let me know.

Pretty sure you'll need fenders. If you pass without, tell me the name of the CSP inspector and location you went to!

So jealous Matt! I've definitely hit a wall with mine. It's so close and needs the little details buttoned up. I'll have to come see yours soon.

But only within the City of Denver. At least that's what I read on the jeep forums. So, guess I'll stay out of Denver. Easy enough. Wouldn't want to really drive down there anyways unless I'm on i-25 passing through. In which case I'll take the toll road

What headlights - specifically - did you use? Any comments (good or bad) on light output, particularly on low beam? I have the Dominators from Exomotive, and they are REALLY low output, even with upgraded bulbs. I suspect this is due to reflector design or lack thereof.

The head lights are from Amazon www.amazon.com/Bobber-Headlight-Lights-Harley-Davidson-Motorcycle/dp/B00II7SWJ8?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00 haven't really been able to test them out other then taking the car to the end of the driveway to aim them. They seem pretty bright even on low beam but I'll hold my opinion until I can actually drive it somewhere at night. Not sure what bulbs the dominators use but these use h4 bulbs.

Thanks for the info, Matt.
The Dom's also use H4's, so it was easy to test out an upgraded bulb. I think a big part of the problem is due to them having a little bulb (i.e. 'city light') in the lower half of the reflector, and that projected item messes up the beam pattern. Just a guess on my part, but in short, they suck with respect to light output.

You could remove that side light and blank up the hole with tin foil as a temporary off road test...if that works use external side lights (maybe led strips) and a more permanent fix for the reflector?

Started the registration process today by going to the Colorado State Patrol Inspection. After barely getting the trailer out of my neighborhood I got to the CSP office. Everything was good but I failed inspection for the windshield. The windshield must be safety glass and must be large enough to block wind and debris. So, now I need to figure out how to put a stupid (removable) full windshield on this thing. Oh and also got a warning for not having the serial plate mounted anywhere. He wasn't going to fail me on that but failed me for the windshield and gave me the number to the head guy in Golden who has the final say. He confirmed the other officer's questions around the windshield so I guess I'll have to figure something out.

So, no fenders is OK?!?!?!?! Fenders weren't an issue. Just don't do anything to get attention in Denver.
