We sell Veilside. Is it not on the site? Will get that listed. Also Pepsi has a past with Veilside and we choose to use them as the kit looks good.

We are redoing the dyno tests. Should have results next week.

Thanks!

Ooooo. I guess you just served him didn't you? You just stuck it right to him where it hurts. Watch out with that thing, you might mistakenly serve someone else in the process.

Car looks good. Would like to see the dyno.

Actually I was mistaken, I thought the last pic was taken in the dark but it was just lower lighting. I wasn't trying to "serve" anyone, though I have been known to bring it from time to time I actually thought the car looked nice in the first post, but I'm not liking it as much in these pics.

Thank you very much, it was a tough decision. Although you (and anyone else reading this) should know I have a Buddy Club rear, not Veilside. Just didnt care for it but thats the beauty of this hobby...

Thank you also, It was fairly easy (so i was told) to install, not much body work had to be done over the norm.

Was up DEEDUBB, thanks man, your ride is pretty hot too, and thanks for the toy!!
It was great to meet you and the others.

I certainly appreciate the compliments, Im sure the insults will come soon as they all have their opinion, they sure did at the show; one guy was asking me about the aerodynamics of the kit!!! Are you kidding me?!?! Its a show car you dipsh#*! AND was probably the fastest street legal 8 at Sevenstock!! I love going to shows to get new ideas; DEEDUBB, who was the guy parked next to you?? I want the rear bumber that he has.
Well back to the PEPSI car; Im not sure if sponsor/vendor cars can compete in shows but wish me luck this weekend at HIN Phoenix as this Pepsi car will be there too. And to Vivid I look forward to meeting you, after all I did order my radiator hoses from you. Catch yall later

It's funny, cause he is probably off on some internet forum calling you a dipsh#*! for your anti-aerodynamic 2f2f body kit. And that's the beauty of this hobby.

I like the look though, I guess I'd still like to see it complete though :D
