Thanks!  We need to get the rest done next month.  We were on the side of the Turnpike.  Some dikhead swiped the rear of our trailer and took off.  My Tundra held up like a champ saving a major accident.  Driver took off but I hope he foked up their car big time!

Thanks!  Interior took a long time.  Remind me to have someone do the carbon fiber work next time....too messy and too time consuming!  The rear will be only audio.....no seats.  Headers...exhaust....and then a charger.

Rav spec.....Work dealer in NY.

eh, not wide enough... lol

Sorry we missed you.....my wife was at the car most of the time but I was all over the place.  Spent some quality time with Jim Wang from Weds.

Looked good.

Wow dude, awesome SC!!!!!

Mark is gonna kill it when its complete. He can open a Lexus dealership with his line up. Keep the updates coming.

Trying go live up to my SC hero.....:biggthumpup:   Time and space will dictate how quickly I get this done.

Time for somebody to start a poll.... This or goldie!?

I smell friendly competition... lol

[QUOTE=projecty33;462415]Time for somebody to start a poll.... This or goldie!?[/QUOTE]

that's a tough one. both have big plusses with a couple negatives. let's call it a draw.

lets just enjoy em both and not start a direct comparison between cars :)  any more pics of this yet?

I hope you guys know I am just joking, both cars are real nice. Saw them both at the show and both are good/old friends of mine...

[QUOTE=BAHC;462440]lets just enjoy em both and not start a direct comparison between cars :)  any more pics of this yet?[/QUOTE]

We'll have a shoot done when I finish the car.  Each car has it's own personality and each one reflects its owners vision.  I think both William and I would agee we built our cars for ourselves so we'll compare them against our own visions for the cars. If we want to compare.....let's compare who has more white hair from the builds.....

Well said brother! AHahahaha There is no comparison. You might like oranges and I might like apples. Everyone will have a different opinion on the car and may or may not like it. But ok let's get one thing straight.. I think you got me beat on the white hairs though... lol but i'm catching up.

saw this at Wek, shit was gangsta :biggthumpup:

Will and Mark,

Boh cars are very well built and put together, Glad I got to see both of them at Wekfest, when you guys have that shoot, let me know I am definitely come and see the cars fully done, next to each other... Will, it was good seeing you, what a small world.. Mark, Two Tone...

Albert

we need more pics!

makes me want to paint my car red lol

Saw this in the Wekfest video and though 'why haven't I seen this car before'.
Its a damned fine example.

Awesome set up man!

This SC turned out great too. 

In for more pics.

Wow came along great. I seen it on instagram and didn't put 2 and 2 together that it was your ride. I'm really digging the red.

Thanks all......  The build started out as a side project to tryout different techniques and materials, but it got out of hand!  Car is back in the shop to fix a few things and install the audio where the back seats were.  We busted a gut just to get ot presentable for the show but now we need to finihsh it...that's when we'll have more pics.

[QUOTE=OG;462435]that's a tough one. both have big plusses with a couple negatives. let's call it a draw.[/QUOTE]


Exactly.......when you build a car there will be some who like it....and some who don't.  Only a fool builds a car to please everyone.  Be happy with your project and you'll be fine.

Can't wait to see it done!  Love what I've seen on instagram.

Car is back in the shop....working on the audio and some tweeks.* Here's the back end.

Color was off a little so we decided last night to respray the entire car in LFA Pearl Red.  Nothing like a full dip in under 18 hours....

We stopped by your car but you were probably out and about.  We left early because it was a long weekend with 2 shows.  Here we are at the DE show.

No plans for the tail swap.....pretty much done with the car except for some few odds and ends....and maybe boost ?????:giggity:

[QUOTE=actolex;465166]No plans for the tail swap.....pretty much done with the car except for some few odds and ends....and maybe boost ?????:giggity:[/QUOTE]

The tail light swap would be perfect in my opinion but the original ones still look good on there smoked/tinted. 

Boost would be icing on the cake!

Love it but want it lower. Still my fav car in recent memory

[QUOTE=BAHC;465244]Love it but want it lower. Still my fav car in recent memory[/QUOTE]

Car is static, so any lower in the front and I won't be able to turn.  Rear had to be raised a little until I install the camber kit.  Audio is being finished up, then camber kit, headers, exhaust, and some minor stuff need to be installed.

I snapped a few pics while you were at Black in it today. Looks even better in person!! You and the "General" get any shots together? That would have been tight, hope you guys did...
