I like some of the mods, but there are a few items that bug me. The gas pedal not matching the clutch/brake is kinda weird looking.
I would also NEVER remove a set of HRE wheels for anything but another set. The Budniks look like an after thought.

They look like Coddington Smoothies.
I think the Boze were more fitting... but what do I know? (dont answer that)

RB's attention to detail is second to none... nice job as always guys !

I also had the pleasure of seeing this car in Rochester. WOW!! Did I like everything on the car, no. But that didn't keep me from standing there drooling over it for a long time There are a ton of mods to this car that
you would have to study for some time to catch them all. Congrats on a truly awesome project

My bad. Looking at IForged's website it appears they were heavily influenced by HRE's style right down to the shape of the crest in the center cap.

The car is on the next level for sure! but wow imo the wheel change hurt the cars sex appeal! And i love Allans wheels but sorry missed the mark on these wheels they really dont look comfortable on this car ecs. as nice as the car is. well one out of two in the most important things to nail isnt bad Paint and WHEELS.

I love the car.

I do have to agree that the original wheels looked allot more sinister on the car the the new billet wheels.

The car has a euro look to it and the new wheels are more street rodie to me.

But, again, I think the Mike and Jim have out done them self again and manage to raise the bar to the level of concept cars.
