It's not even close to complete..
Your literally seeing green painters tape to hold it up and a big ass wheel gap
and assuming that i'm keeping it like that?
C'mon man, be realistic. Open your mind and respect the individual craft, and amount of effort that I'm going to have to put into this to get it to where I want it to be.
I pay for every part that goes into this build out of my own pocket.
Telling me to go forced induction like I'm made of money.. chill buddy.
I'm a freelance artist, who doesnt work a regular 9-5 like a zombie.
HKS supercharger is in my list of parts, but that depends how hard I work.
You'll see this thing flood social media when its 100% done.
I'm curious to see your build..

Normally I would be reluctant to see a car fall victim to the rally backer kit BUT If anyone can pull it off its ol' birdy over here.

I wouldn't underestimate his creative genius.

Anyways i'm really curious as to what wheels you will running if not the ones you have now.

Wasn't really digging the whole green interior thing until I got to the latest pics you posted and gotta admit, it's really really growing on me. Good job mate.

Hey Birdy, been on this forum for a while and didnt even realize you posted on here. Follow/subscribed to all your social media accounts. Love what you're doing and keep it up! Hope to meet you one day since I live in Seattle. Especially loved the Vancouver videos you did.

Not long after I got the car I received parts including a front lip, helix side markers, a rear diffuser and fog lights.
The first couple of weeks was basically me figuring out my car inside and out.




Got a link to your front lip right here?
