Last few pictures before I get the Vertex sides on and new engine mods. Had the full Vertex plus a spare Vertex bumper but the painter took over a month to paint the kit

Half rolling shot:





My teammates Vette with TE37's. We have over 4 cars with TE37's in different finishes

Found this guy on IG and made a quick pic-stitch. Any of you know him so we can give him an intervention? I hope by this point I dont have to point out everything wrong with what you're about to see....
EDIT: He also tagged the picture with #volkrays and I'm almost 100% sure they're just varrstoen

Why intervene? Let him have at it, not like your not planning on throwing purple wheels on you car. To each their own.

I was referring to the aggressive wheels with really stretched tires at stock height. The actual wheels are dope though.
