What cha think.....
....mods just about done. For you that have followed my mod journey over the last few months here is the almost final results..... some minor tweaks to complete.
MCM Mallet Carbon Fiber Hood, added the vent.
ECS System 552 rwhp 548tq with AR Headers and Alky systems
ACI Front Splitter
TPE Flared Rear Quarter Panels w/C6z Splash Guards
Boyd Coddington 19/20 Wheels 275front 345 rear Nitto
Painted Calipers Red
I am happy broke
Now I may need to leave this forum so I don't get any more ideas, this modding thing is addictive
