Well, that is the signature color for Project Mu. Awesome stuff~ I actually think it stands out quite nicely. Of course, personal taste. I am so tired of the traditional Red or Black BBK!

i have the forged line, it's the lower grade line already. retail? probably like 5? market price isn't much better neither. they have a racing line, that's the real baller. front and rear racing setup, retail 12k

it was good seeing you folks too, good to put names and faces together. but at the same time i have very bad memories on names, haha
