Your 15' was pretty fly! Excited to see what you do to the new one.

How are you liking the upgrade? Any noticeable improvements in he motor/trans/suspension departments?

Nice build man! Love the blue and props on the original wheel finish.

Where did you get the reflective Lexus logo for the front?
