Love the color. Got any other odd color ideas that might look good. Might have to try it out when I paint my car next year.

bought it online, cant remember the place off the top of my head though. Its all pretty much the same price. I wouldnt do it in the winter. The vinyl gets really hard in the cold weather. Youre supposed to install it @ 75 degrees

I'm diggin' everything about this car, and I'm really not that big of a fan of satin finishes. This color and the finish actually goes together quite well. Nice job on the total package!

The color theme & rs kit looks great, did you have the holes filled in the quarter panels when you removed the 3 piece spolier? I really like how the ss spolier looks with the kit.

And no, I didnt have them filled. A body shop wanted $800+ to fill the holes

I just found little circle pieces of plastic, painted them to match, put them in the hole, and epokied it from behind. You can barely even tell they are there. Then when I did the wrap I just wrapped right over them.

You can find some of those plastic push-rivets, with a head that will fit in the hole, and use that, but cut off the rivet part... if you know what I mean

i like the shifter ****. 15 ball corner pocket (6th gear)! I thought about doing that, but didnt know how to go about doing it, and the cost of an actual pool ball isnt exactly cheap! Nice ride

I saw this car in a magazine I have. Looks great, very nice job on the 200+ mph and work on the car.
When I watched the video it doesn't seem like you're going that fast. It seems to handle really well and not get a lot of inside car noise.
Was that a GoPro you filmed it with?
I may have missed it but what's the car weigh and what tire sizes are you running with?
I am curious to know what suspension parts you are using. Anything from Strano? Watts link?
You do all the work and tuning your self?
Have you race the 1/4 mile?
