It was recently reported that filming is almost through, the last stretch of shooting was to take place in Los Angeles, and had begun earlier this mont. Deceased actor Paul Walker's younger brothers have filled in for him and done their bit to also help conclude the story arc.
In a The Hollywood Reporter report, the ending of the 13-week shoot was written about. The final scene will be shot in Bakersfield, California with 600 people in the shot. Seems like it will be a massive feat for director James Wan.

But an inside source also revealed that the production was having some kind of a face off with its insurance company, Fireman's Fund. The film has claimed $50 million because of the sudden death of Paul Walker which caused delays, the need to employ special effects and rehauling of the story.
So while filming is complete, it seems like the post-production and promotion for the film might be affected to a certain degree because of lack of funds. Only time will tell if things will sort themselves out.
The film will hit theaters in April 2015.
