PrinceAkim has been one of the hardcore members in Atlanta with our SELOC meets etc here for years. He was driving the car around stock and still coming to meets all the time. Slowly but surely he had his plan and the wait and patience is paying off.

Saw the car for the first time pull at at the 1sicklexus meet and I didn't even recognize it at first and then it hit me who it was. I was so happy for him. Car looks FANTASTIC in person and knowing PrinceAkim's attention to detail and style there is more good stuff coming.

Great work dude!!! Here is a pic from Saturday from CL member Greg

Super nice wheels. I kinda regret selling my old ones Such a shame they discontinued such a gorgeous wheel.

Just to give you a little heads up Trafficstar's are actually made by Riverside Japan and not Savini. They actually have no relation to Savini at all. The eBay seller most likely just put it in the title.

Mike, you are the GS King, and your comments mean a lot. I remember when we first met, and we were talking about Lexus' and Jordan's and Starbucks. How time has passed. I can't wait to make my next mods. Thanks for the love.

Thanks for the find, that was an error on my part. Trafficstar (sold as Maya in the states) are made by Riverside. So happy to find these.
