Man, that thing looks mean going down the road. Great build guys.
That stance is amazing!:wow:

That car is wicked. The stance is nasty. I Love the colors and the pattern painted in. That is pretty damn cool.
In what seems to be an era of cnc'd half million dollar cars, this "appears" to be something more down to earth, but totally bada$$ at the same time.

I know I'll look like a dic$ for even saying it, but the one gig to me is the color difference of the doors from being painted blown apart. But I suck at painting so what do I know.

:thumbsup: killer stuff guys! Glad to see people driving and actually beating on the car! Cant wait to get my car done so i can take her to the track!

The color is crazy in the sun and in pictures... Its funny the other night when we were testing the car would go from black to purple to maroon back to brown as it went past.. I can assure you the doors match..

Well we have been driving the wheels off of the car and loving every minute of it.. Had a chance to take a few more pictures of the car to share with you all..

That car sits so perfect :hail:

Wanted to tell you guys I really dig this car, and you guys did a great job on it. Sinister as all hell, great color combo, stance, everything is spot on in my book.

Not too over the top that its a turn off either. Awesome! :hail:

Congrats on the top 5 SMOTY and the build of this car, sorry I never posted until now. Pretty amazing build and you guys have been beating on it so where is Todd to pat you guys on the back?? :lol:

Todd who?????

Who's taillights
 

I saw you in Chicago. I spent a lot of time looking over this car and atn to detail is by far the best I have seen on our cars. Where did you get the LED tail lights? Those are what I have been trying to make. Sweet Car!

Vegas69 Todd Akes, it was just a joke he likes it when guys build high end cars and beat on them like you guys have done. :cheers:

Do you have any finished interior pics?

Shoot me an email and I will give you the details... [email protected]

Congrats! I cant wait to see this car at SEMA.

Well deserved. Its just not a show car to look at, even though it has more detail than most show cars. Congrats!!!

Congrats. I guess you don't have to clean the bugs off now that you got the big award.

Congrats! That is a great car.

Great build ....what was the motivation behind the color selection?

Congrats that car is outstanding!

650 healthy sounding horses (IIRC) :cool:

Any vids of it on a road course?

Mind telling me what hood hinges your running? I need a set for mine!!! and x2 on the info for the LED tail lights!
Drew

hinges are Ring Brothers

any writeups on the LED tail lights?

Any closeup pics of the front and rear window rubber? Did you powdercoat the trim on the weatherstripping insert?

Good chance you can find a few pics of the car here

Trim was powdercoated wrinkle finish black....like a Harley Davidson cylinder.....so it had some texture.

it looks like RPM closed up shop

A while ago......

This happens quite more frequently than most think.

^^^^^^^^^^

Ouch

But...
