looks nice. one thing i would do is take the molding off of the side of the car. it would give it a cleaner line and would look better to me, but it already looks great.
like this

the photoshop isnt the greatest, but it gives you an idea of how it would look.

Damn that car looks sooo nice. For some reason I look at it from that over head angle and it reminds me of a cossie....and thats saying a lot!

Thank you guys... That's my thing. Clean sleeper... You know that there is something going on, when I press hard, and rpm reaches 5krpm...

At that point, exhaust sound different and much louder...

If I take it off, then It would look like Lanos MK1... Also, I was thinking to shave doors, but I would have law trouble then..

why would the law care about door handles?

You must have door handles... By the law... So they could get in the case of accident. Stupid, but true..

Good work and nice finish, but let me ask if you dont mind, how much the projectors cost you ?
