Beautiful car, I love it!

For future reference, you can put many pictures in a single post or even reply to your own thread. The forum software does not require you to start a brand new thread for each picture.

That looks like an extremely nice, straight, well done paint job. Probably lose you few NCRS points.....

Nice color combo, and I never thought I liked purple. In my neighborhood, the lower stance would cause some body damage in the dips, but it looks very nice.

Awesome, Absolutely beautiful. I'd like to see how you routed the exhaust, especially at the rear if you don't mind.

Thanks Gordon.
