I don't know why the thread has been moved.

This thread was to promote a member's shop located in So Cal region?

So Cal members are able to watch the video and see the work so if they ever need work done, they can stop by and ask for a quote....

I don't work for Platinum VIP, but Kennedy is a very good friend of mine and I have known him for 10+ years.

I do believe the wide body M3 is there, because Kennedy actually just finish the wide body before it was transported to SEMA.

I didn't get to go to SEMA this year, but I heard it was slow
