Default Build- PROJECT WHITE FLACON

Ok, so after my accident I figured it was the perfect time for building this car the way I want to build it. That being said the shop I had the car at took a month to change the left suspension. When it was drive able I took my truck I got my fenders, bumper, head lights drove the parts and my car home with a friends which was 2-3 miles away. Anyways, I just wanted everyone to see how the car was coming along the factory lights had to be changed because, of the accident. I will be wiring Halos tomorrow.

Kind of wanted a 2000ish feel some people will say I riced out it's what ever. Yes that's a sword holding up my hood. It was either the short sword the Hero's sword or that sword in the pic.

I might get rid of the exhaust that came with the car it looks big and for no reason and it's in the way.

Tails have to go, and exhaust needs a few inches cut out of it, then tucked up closer to the bumper. The actual muffler looks to be pretty nice. Front half of the car looks great, is the Turbo a Greddy unit, or just the hoses? Also, rims are nice- spacers would perfect it. Btw, what's a FLACON???

I think the exhaust sticks out way too far, and I am not a fan of the tails. Everything else looks great though

This is a current picture of how I'm driving the car. I'm upset the the accident messed up my carbon fiber bumper however, I'm willing to mold fiber glass to it and paint it. I DO have another bumper in my apartment just not using it yet.
