Sick, the only thing I don't like too much is the blue interior and Audio set up. But from what I heard you guys didn't have a ton of time on your side, over all I say is one of the better TC show cars I have seen.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the great feedback. A lot of work went into the car and when it was all said and done our sponsors were happy and so was I.

BTW it is a KIT (Kreative Import Technology) 8pc wide body kit.

I originally got the car in blue and then we tore it all apart and painted the engine compartment (and did the floating motor), entire interior, and the exterior.

The carbon hood and hatch are from Fiber FX.

And the HRE's are 19x10.5's in the front and 19x11's in the rear, matched up with Falken 451 tires.

Ill have more pics of the car once I get back from NY this weekend.

Thanks again guys for the comments.

This car is absolutely phenominal!

I've had to wipe the drool off my chin now for 15 straight minutes...and I'm still not done looking at this car. Are you the person that worked on the Turtle Wax project?...if so, you've out done yourself...this is just something to take to heart being a tC owner.

The exterior work is top shelf...love that rivited fender treatment too...very different...and that color is INSANE...if that color doesn't get your attention...I hope something on the car does...

Wheels are sik...that set-up is awesome...hate to thing what this gets in city...but who's counting. This car would be to sweet looking not to drive.

Definitely have to re-think that Kreative kit now...something about that color just makes that kit POP.

Two thumbs up...I definitely hope to see this car in the show circuit when it reaches Dallas...hopefully.

Great work again!
