F*CK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You car looked awesome. I like everything but the ws6 on the tail light filler. What happened?? Bald tires? I totaled my old truck the in the rain. After that I drive 50 mph or less in the rain.

Wow man, sorry to hear about that. Car looked really good, hopefully you can salvage the car. I almost wrecked one of my old Z28s when I had bald DRs on it in the rain(I know, I was a dumb ***). Needless to say, I barely drive in the rain at all now, and if I do, I barely putt along. Things can get out of hand quickly, and now I'm constantly thinking my backend is kicking out. It sucks.
