Default Back from the shop... iphone pics :(

My buddy Nick(b16gsr)dropped me off at the shop day before yesterday so I could pick her up and as soon as I got home I had to bust out the stripes from Mike(vettestripes)and get to work on the hood. New(to me)hood fixed after a beating during delivery, new quarters(L-5's)and Pete's(QuikZ06) C-spoiler... After I get my new exhaust lined up and welded properly I am done til late winter. Per my at home authority Just glad to get some seat time in finally. Though times almost up.

Sweet for sure. Love the matching red on the hood and the rims with that tad of red from the emblem. Looks awesome.
