Default Black Cherry Twins!

Nate, here are the pics from NELOC with our cars. A lot of my NELOC photos were a bust. But our "twins" shots seemed to have came out OK.

love the car kevin, BUT....

please, please, please ditch the chrome rings on the tails. they are ruining the look of your JP tails. with those trims, the stock tail lights on the other car actually look better/cleaner.

Schweet twins. I sorta like the bezels. They're slightly too thick but I like that it is different than anyone else's gs.

Cars look great! Nice pics.

I would have to agree with the chrome around your taillights... Doesnt do much for me.

Default Chrome rings..

I know you heard from other members already about the chrome tail rings. If you didn't have the JP then most people would be fine with it on. But bro, $1,000 plus for tails and then putting them chrome rings on takes the JP's finish to a lower level. Other than that, hot car and keep it up.

The sunroof shield is used not for cosmetic and more for the buffeting. I don't know if any of you guys have problems with it. But I have very sensitive ear drums when it comes to air pressure and every vehicle I have had caused me problems with buffeting at certain speeds. Really causes me a really bad headache after riding around for awhile. Heard it effects some and not others.
