Rebuild Pics

Well as you guys know i got struck by the SS curse for the second time and destroyed the front of my car. I have since been in the process of rebuilding my car and is so far complete. Sorry for the crappy cell pics but will have a professional shoot once the carbon fiber TS hood arrives.

The shop painted over the lower lip on the bumper after i told them not too... sucked but the replica sideskirts are all silver so it matches well. I will mostly likely take the car in next week and just have them paint the front lip back to the charcoal color and while its there have them do the sideskirt lip.

Broken ****

I have used VIS in the past (nice hoods). This was my first time using Seibon and the quality is definitely better on the Seibon. It is almost twice as thick as the VIS hoods i have used on other cars and the locking latch connection is also very nicely designed with the wide steel latch. Dont need to worry about this puppy breaking loose . O and my mechanic just got her nips pierced so she is a little sore and didnt feel like doing a shoot today but i will be having a photoshoot with the car and possibly some with her on Friday .
