It looks like you've put a lot of work into that car! I love that hood! There is a guy around here with one. It looks sweet.

I like somethings about it, hate others, but it looks like it was purposely a little over the top. The 19s/20s kind of go with the over done look. I think they look too big, but thats just one opinion.

Props for makin such an unusual / custom ride man.

How much did your air ride run you? Who'd you buy it from?(I've been thinking about it.)
