Thanks to all you guys for the positive feedback, I can tell you this car is now turning some heads, I have to watch other people so they dont run into me on the road trying to figure out what im driving....in parking lots it draws a croud, maybe a bit more attention than I wanted.

Yes! I changed the wheels from Foose to the Vossens and of course the 295's.
