Since I can't afford a $20k HKS supercharge, (I only know one person that has the ***** to do it and patiently waiting for his debut) I decided to do something different with the engine compartment. Instead of doing hydro dip, I decided to air brush the cover. I wanted to keep the Japanese theme..stay JDM as much as possible. I opted for a samurai warrior. A warrior alone looks kinda plain so a female warrior was added. The result turned out pretty good.

Why must it cost 20K?!!!

Love the Japanese painting on the engine bay covers.

Brian, Futura do not cost that much. It is more affordable then a lot of people think. The performance is pretty good as well.

Lol, I have a $2k Canon but use it mainly on my kids. I find it easier to use an iPhone and send it straight to my email. I did a photo shoot for Air Runner, hopefully those photo get release soon.

Thanks, Cesar. It was great seeing the Aimgain LS460 as well.

Yes, the whole team is lazy. We work on car but don't take pictures of it, not even at shows. Except with our cell phones.

Here are a few pictures taking with my cell phone. This was a photo shoot for Air Runner suspension right after TORC in Long Beach. Hopefully the high quality version gets release soon. I had the pleasure of having Justin (lei_z_ass) with his Aimgain GT from Hawaii and Cesar (mex lex) with his Aimgain LS460 from Arizona joined in the shoot.
