Thanks! SEMA was a lot of fun, first time to go for me. Love the dog, too bad I cannot say that's where we got it from, it would be a good story if it was.:head3:

[grabberblue50]

the wheels are awful sorry makes it look like one of the goofy ricers

[kanetrain]

Not a big fan of the wheels either, they clash. But the stripe on the hood I actually like.

[merlinmol]

Unfortunately pics just don't do it justice, its almost a must see in person. However, I understand that its not for everyone.

[kanetrain]

Yeah I could see them looking better in person, the wheel design is really nice, and the offset is perfect.

[46Tbird]

Dont sweat it, the wheels are bad ass. Great choice. They look good on the car and they're distinctive, just what you want at SEMA.

[Jucostud]

wheels are pretty sick in person. forgelines with michelin pilot supersports = killer!

Damn, those wheels really are THAT copper. It looks good though. And as much as I'm against decals, that is actually a subtle spot to put them...

Too bad the sun didn't come out til later, the wheels are retarded when it is out. Honestly, I've been too lazy to take the decals off, plus our sponsors were awesome so I do not mind sporting them for a bit longer.

I am very curious to how Steve got a pic if he wasn't there this weekend haha :banghead:

[DirtyD]

Looks like he hotlinked from Mike's Flickr Photostream. :p

I wanna see your rear end in person. :D

[merlinmol]

Wow, he sure did take a lot of shots of her too, I like his work.

I was really bummed by the amount of overcast this weekend also. The wheels are awesome and the color is amazing.

Here are a couple from last month and some more from this month.

I wanna see your rear end in person. :D

I looks great. I will for sure be doing that to my car down the road.

I thought about trying it with some flat clear plastidip. See how it looks.

[03MachMe]

Didn't even know they had that... may be a good temporary fix

I know plastidip is removable, but i'd be careful, those rear tailights on the 13's are stupid expensive.

[merlinmol]

Anyone else enjoy Mike M's photos, I was looking at the set from this weekend and he does a pretty darn good job considering it was cloudy and cold.

Yeah, that's an understatement. Haha

If prepped right, and applied thick enough, if will peel right off. Just like my chin spoiler is already doing. :wall:

Thanks for the kind words! I really appreciate it.

Scrape it too many times or is it coming off on its own?

Thanks for the kind words! I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the pics, always nice to see some of the events, evidently I missed several cool cars out there, especially that VW Beetle with the cool paint job on it.

[DirtyD]

Well the area that I scrape are forcefully peeled. It randomly started peeling on the sides...

Well that sucks, guess its time to redo it or just get it painted:hmm:

[Howle5b]

Car looks wicked! :waytogo:

[unreal]

Great looking car. How is the magnacharger?

[Jucostud]

Thanks for the kind words! I really appreciate it.

I forgot about those panning shots. I'm glad you like it.

I'll be at Cars and Coffee on Saturday. For anyone who will be going, post a shot of your car and I'll try to get a few shots at the show.

I love the Magnacharger, just waiting for them to come out with their CAI for it, mock up on SVT put another 60+ whp and 40+wtq
