I love the brake kit. Looks like he has 6 pots in the rear!
Color is slick too, reminds me of hot titanium. Cool!

That car is dope... Again, not a fan of the eBay lights, everything else is straight with me, including the BBK, wheels, body kit, and paint.

That's the first time I've seen a rear wing in that style and I kinda' like it for this car. I think a different grill would work better though. Cool car nonetheless and the 600hp has to be fun.

me too, i've never seen a wing like that and yeah i would LOVE 600 hp. i think grill is fine but the bumper should be fitted better to reduce that gap between the grill and bumper

p.s. i LOVE that front bumper anyone know where to get a ridox bumper?

EDIT....lucky MF also has a hand brake
