Some fancy polished rolled exhaust tips came today, will have to find a mobile exhaust guy to weld it all together when that time comes down the road.

Messed around a little with the seats, have to make custom rails to bolt into factory holes unfortunately.

Unfortuanly Brian and the guys can't locate any interior molds currently as most things are put away in storage.

So the kit is on the boat coming over here I at least started with oem center console going with a custom 458 style in the 5cudo. Have to remove the front cup holder section, move the 3 switch trim forward and make custom center boot trim for shifter. The E-Brake I will customize by cutting the handle in half and/or moving it back further towards the rear a few.

Hiya, I,m just on with Scudo build that has been started by someone else and trying to get my head round loads of brackets some not shown on your pic.
I think, (please someone correct me if I,m wrong) the long brackets at the bottom may go to hold the new sill to oem sill, the two on left center that taper are the base for headlights and the three larger pieces in the centre line are to box in over the exhaust ( they fit on the floor of rear deck to back panel, large one in centre smaller ones one each side. I will take a pic later today of those three.
Have you got a pattern I could copy for the brake brackets, I have discs and calipers but no supports, ( it will save me starting from scratch)

Thanks madman, I will get pictures of the brackets later on today. Guess I could make paper/cardboard template and send to you if needed.

Yeah i found no build thread or pictures of these brackets, I believe your right on these brackets I'm still scratching my head... my kit came with side skirts not molded attached to the rear bumper section like every build I seen as well so wondering if the two long metal brackets on the bottom of my picture are for side skirts some how.

The 2nd long metal bracket on the top is pretty heavy duty steel compared to other brackets I was thinking it was something for the front or rear bumper, no idea. I can the other pieces boxing in the exhaust for heat shield would make sense.

Here's a pic that might help with two of the brackets. This is of the left side of the car.

Here's one showing the "transmission tunnel". You can see the gear stick lever and (vaguely) two of the repositioned Cougar controls. I'll try and find some later.
