Default Another AIMGAIN ISC - matte white/carbon

Noticed AIMGAIN put together another featured ISC. Don't know if they just wrapped the original Black ISC or if this is a completely new build.

Either way.. Here are some pics.

It's the same black car, wrapped, and with a wing. I love it!

I love the graphics/paint scheme. I like it in white too...looks less "busy" to me then when in black.

As promised.

I went to the shop yesterday and worked with the painter to discuss what I had purchased. Apparently the parts for the ISC OFFICIALLY DO NOT FIT. Luckily he has done work for me in the past and he is a customer of mine, he said he could make them fit. In addition to the fenders not working with the doors the front grill is not the same and not even close. Any way the car is not all that far away from being done. I have new wheels coming which I will share later. Here are the pictures from the shop yesterday. I will continue to add to this as it progresses.






In addition to the standard work required to get all the parts on and painted he is going to do some custom paint and a few other things.

The fender and door lines do not match. The convertible has a more rounded line and the sedan is more vertical. In addition the side skirts on the sedan and convertible do not have the same line. It is hard to see in those pictures. It is off enough that the parts have to be cut up and material added.
