Been a while, time to Reveal it though!

I don't know if it belongs in here or no...if not i am sorry, mod can move it. It has been a while that i have posted on here...was overseas working for a bit. I started the make over in February and just got done with the exterior, Air Ride, and body work. Car is currently back in the shop for interior work! I would like to thank Exotics Inc, Phantasm Motorsports, D2 Racing and especially my best friend Steve Nguyen for all the hard work to get my GS done on time for IA Atlanta 2011. I couldn't have done it with out them! Thank you guys!!! It means a lot to me! Also would like to thank Stance Nation for the ISO feature and fatlace for my car feature! It is not all the way done yet, It is back in the body shop!...Not buffed or polished yet. But will have more pictures later!!!

Dude, new paint looks dope as hell! First set of SSR SP3s in NC! I was hoping you would go K-Break, but Vertex looks good w/ the front mount. Can't wait to check it out whenever I get back into town from work.

Thanks! Yeah i couldn't think of K-Break kit looking good for the way i wanted the body work to be. The Vertex kit flowes well with the fender work

so you're implying that the recent mods have made this car more vip? i see the volks replaced with equally sporty sp3, a kit that looks more drift than anything, some fender work, and a different shade of red. am i missing something? cause the way i see it the new look is the old look with some minor additions.

no offense op. i can dig it both ways, i just prefer the old color and stock body.

I appreciate everyones comments, Just to give you heads up...it took me 3 years to pick the Kit and Rims, money wasn't the issue i just didn't want what everyone had. The fender work is not minor...if you see it in person as some of the members on here have...it was a lot of work, had to work with the body lines. As far as the color goes, it is still the same color with little but of more gold pearl added to it. But everyone has there own taste.

my purpose was not to demean your effort, just to point out that you continued to build in a style true to the original version.

i agree ELPRES! i also see 2 very different styles! i must agree that the new look is more VIP than the last and i definitely love where this build is going! its still a bit too practical for my taste! i would widen the wheels a bit and camber them out slightly, maybe paint the CF hod and trunk as well! but thats just my opinion!

ill say it again i love the new look and where this is going!! keep up the great work!

kinda offtopic but we really need to stop quoting and commenting on other peoples opinions! thats how threads get WAY offtopic! if some1 doesnt understand what the other member was saying they should ask that person through PM as to not ruin the flow of the OP thread!!! :biggthumpup::dance::giggity:
