Very impressive build!!! I like your variation of ultrasonic blue, I thought about painting mine ultrasonic blue 2.0 but I think I'll keep it black. Your build makes me want to take mine to your shop and restore it to mint condition. Is that a big win lip?

Ship your car to Jim's place.... that's the best paintjob I have ever seen.

That's the Fujin lip (polyurethane) on Jimmy's car.

It’s running. Nothing is leaking anymore! I had P/S leak, oil leak, coolant leak, vacuum leak... lol. Everything is right, idling well, and ready to go get tuned. I don’t know how to post video here but it sounds awesome! Maybe I’ll make a YouTube channel so y’all can hear it and see it run!

Special thanks to to everyone who supported me and helped me along the way. This build has been a lot of
fun. Still some stuff left to finish up but it sure is gonna be a fun summer!

thanks! Pictures do not do the color justice. You really have to see it in person! It is a fujin style lip from KBD. It’s nice and fitment is pretty spot on!

Looking great!
So are you going to keep the option of multiple wheel choices? Or are you deciding between the two? If you ever consider letting go of the Works, lemme know, lol!
