Wow! Those XXRs look good! Hey, if you haven't relocated your wiring harness now is the time. Save yourself a chewed up harness.

Wow.... those 11 coats are mirror like.... I am sure the camera phone pics don't do it justice. Can't wait to see it in daylight with all the pieces/parts. Thanks for the update....

had to pull fenders. the rear wheels are 20 x 11 +15 offset. you could get away with a bigger offset but i didn't want to be too close to the bags and i wanted to be able to run a 20 x 12 later.

God, that paint...
Absolutely stunning, I could probably use the reflection to shave my face haha
You have a WHP estimate you are aiming for?

Shooting for 600hp this summer, then 1000 over winter. Have a lot of shows this year and can't afford much downtime.
