Could you pm me any info about this and the cost? Also, how long have you had it and the maintenance. Is it good for off the line? Sorry for all the questions.

Dang man how did you do that? Oh and thanks for fixing my drop in the front as I assumed it will look much better once I have that resolved.

I just made the rim bigger (free transform-distort ) in photoshop. I guess you just need stretched tires to achieve the similar look. Good luck, I'm still waiting for the Ipad install. Let me know about that.

Went to check on the status of the build today. Audio/Video underway but pretty much in the ugly stages. But wanted to provide some pics anyway. Scosche Audio provided some of their competition EFX Speakers, Subs, Amps and wiring. Not pictured here TV monitor, Kinetik Audio power cell and inverter, and a few other goodies for the audio system.
