The car is sicker in person. Love what you've done. I may be getting with you on the custom exhausts! Keep up the great work!

Awsome! I know you mentioned the fronts have a 4.5 inch lip, switching to 4 inch. But how big is the rear lip?

I'm actually thinking about selling my brakes and upgrading soon though. 800hp is a lot of power and that calls for bigger brakes
that sounds perfect....... what kind of price and how soon are you thinking your going to be selling these so i can make sure i budget?
