I would never have thought that anyone would've tried something like that (and do it tastefully) but... I guess ya learn something new everyday eh?

Very, very well done

I think it's done nicely. Of course, it's a show car, and he did a good job at making it just that.

I also like that he chose a Toyota Highlander for this project - not something you see everyday. Another cool thing about the car is the record player - I'm not sure if it's a popular thing to do since I don't go to any car shows, but it's the first time I've seen it.

The things I dislike about it I can understand why he did, it's a show car

That's awesome!!! Never seen a Kluger V modded up like that before (but then it's only been out here for a little while)... looks like a Subaru Forester GT when modified!

When I first saw it I had my doubts, but as I looked at it, he really pulled it off nicely.

Its not a car that I would mod BUT, its very very well done and looks really great!

Its not at all a surprise that it wins all the time.

Eventhough, I am 3,000 miles away from you'all here in Connecticut, I admire Team Flux and the awesome rides that you'all have.

I don't know what Team Flux does for a living but the rides are $$$ and really well done.

Congrats.

Ted
