I have to say that the interior work looks first class. A different look but nicely done. Welcome and thanks for sharing.

4080, the mods are great. She's got a stunning look, silver is one of my favorites.

On the wheels I'd def. stay away from going with silver or grey - the black really gives the car a bit of a darkness that's needed to balance it out. If anything go with the FVD faux centerlock caps to add some color to the center.

Some techart intake strakes would look fantastic to round out the new aggressive look.

K16's are for rookies. 2 things that make power. K24/18G and Dr. Jitsu shoes. You pick. One is $3900 more expensive

Nothing wrong with K16's. I know Ryan (TXGold) is still kicking *** and taking names with his.. I just wish I could get mine off the jackstands to show everyone what a 3650lb beast should do on high boost with some REAL hybrids on it . My 6.69 was many many mods ago with less boost. But my 135.7mph was just her starting to try to strut her stuff a little

Also I want to know where you got the leather pieces wrapped at? My brothers tried doing his own and it well didn't turn out right. I am thinking about getting some of my leather pieces done myself also.

If you need your wheels fixed take them to SABS @ 59 and bissonet. They are the best in Houston. They only do it the right way.

+1... Ben speaks truth. I had them rework the wheels on my GS300 and this is a before and after pic

Before: lips rashed, chips in face of the wheels and corrosion in the rivets



After: Lips fixed and polished, machine finished the face and corrision sand blasted

Yeah, I have used SABS for years. Art always hooks an Azian up.
