Whoa that charger looks crazy, do you know how much money put into that? Is he sponsored or something?

one other thing I noticed: He apparently had to remove all of the plastic splash shielding for the engine bay just to get these ghetto rollers to fit. I think I can see engine mounts, for crap's sake!

i had to post here again, I was looking at the pics a bit closer and I had a few questions.......why is there a T.V in the lower portion of the drivers door? and the driver/ passenger seat/ arm rest all facing the wrong way? also Did he just shave the rear doors? or are they hidden on chargers? also if he is in cali my buddy can make new sheet metal splash gaurds.

It all depends on what kinda people you want to impress. Maybe to people who loves bling but I think it's rediculous.

screen on the seat headrest + screen on the passenger side dash + small brakes with heavy wheels + sudden braking situations = people with LCD fragments sticking out of the front and the back of their heads.

I'm all about custom wheels - but when the fitment requires that the car go HIGHER than stock ride height ... I think it's a little rediculous.

26" wheels are no cheap proposition either. A lot of money went into this car.
