No offense BTW. I'm a flipicaneze here.....Filipino - American - born in Japan. Figure that one.

And still trying to figure out what to do with my GS. Alot of ideas from this. Thanks for showing it off!!

What a great timeline Carbon. I like the pic of your buddy in the doctor's outfit helping doing tests on the GS.

hey thanks! that's an awesome comment i've never heard before. a few of my friends believe the ultimate show car like adrian's is a "neck breaker"

there are many many things in store for my gs. it is acquiring the connections and funds to get them done. in the end i'd like to incorporate facits from the street, tuner, vip,and exe styles into my car. I wanna take bits and pieces from each style hoping to create a universally accepted show car. I wwna paint the hood first - there is a specific pattern/design that I have in mind. you'll see. then onto the trunk, interior, motor, then widebody with air suspension. I promise it'll be something you've never seen before. unique is my style!
