Yeah it figures I noticed that you were selling them right after I put the side stripes on

I had originally thought of doing those but then decided against it because I heard there were a few others doing the same.

Looks can be VERY deceiving. Griff will tell you that there are some sleeper cars out there, that are dangerous. He still has the scars from what the Z-Tec engine did to him.
