Looks good man... Car is definitely looking good man! Do you still use the ebrake? If not I think it would look cool to do away with the ebrake handle completely and put the lever there. Either way looks good!

Looks great i made my ebrake handle the release . If you can ever get your hands on a fold down Tag the hole in the tag is gone. Also it looks like a stroud if so it is the best chut you can get hands down.

How do you guys like my release handle location?

I'm very happy with the fit and finish. Thanks a lot Tyson.



That is some good lookin **** right there.

man in those shots the tires really dont look to awful skinny. do they look much narrower then the 315's you had? i would like a bit taller tire but i have a complex...i need big tires under the back of my car or else i feel like less of a man haha. i even thought the 315's were a bit small after taking off my bfg's.

they are narrower but taller.

some say that sidewall helps traction, if it helps by the amount that i am losing by width, then it's an even trade, but i get the gear to help my mph.
