See you in a few weeks at SEMA!

Went to take measurements for the new custom wheels today and snapped a few more pics.

No maybach but cutting up a $25k brand new car is hard to watch.

Dropped off taillights after work with El_StiG to work his magic on them. Should have planned better. It was a PITA to get the tailights out with the custom system. I pretty much had to take the whole thing out to get to the tails.

loved how they looked on lopro25's car.

Lol I cant even receive PMs. I only do local.

RWDRIFT 10-17-2012 03:19 PM

just picked up the final missing link in my build. Seibon's new vented carbon fiber hood and carbon fiber trunk. The pieces look so AMAZING. This is what I was waiting for. I feel the FRS needed a clean vented hood.

Can't wait to see how much this (or other vented CF hoods) will cost, so I know how much I need to save up!

RWDRIFT 10-18-2012 03:41 AM

What is this i see. pictures are definitely worth a 1000 words.
