I hope you decide to get a mold of that nose sometime down the road. I would love to have that.

correct. I pretty maxed out the available space without needing to cut the front trunk. The ability to store the sunroof is a must 
One thing that has become a project of its own are the headlights.. I am doing a dual 90mm Hella setup with Fiero1fan's brackets. I already mounted white leds and custom made guard to these brackets (see bottom of page 14) Looking under the hood at their new location I decided to also cleanup and repaint the motor/brackets and front frame metal. Got the expensive hella connectors and they were dissapointing, not even weatherproof connectors...so I build my own, crimped/soldered/shrinksleeved together with braided wiring 

 One of the details is a small adjuster to hold and secure the wires...first version was a one piece aluminium strip with a tiewrap around the center (lengthwise), this second version works better

Are you using just the Hella projectors or the Hella HID's for the low beams?

For now the Hella projectors, I have looked into HID conversions but first I will try these.

I find myself redoing almost everything under the front hood since dealing with the lights / front-battery and some other stuff Cleaned, sealed and repainted the exposed sheetmetal and frame, also disassembled, cleaned and painted stuff like the radiator brackets and parts
 This is a set of catchcans which I may all use
 - enginebay coolant filling point - enginebay intercooler filling / breather - front overflow tank replacement
Finished Koni's with Held coilovers for the rear
