Thanks for all the complements guys.

Chris, I have a few ideas about your engine bay. We'll talk about it next time I see you.
Mark, your right about it being night and day. I feel like I bought a new car.

Now this is creative ideas at its best. I love how everything flows. So many little details were thought of and executed correctly. Love the brakes and I Love the bentlry green on the trunk bar and rear emblem. Great job man. I want to just jump out and say I love the wheels and new kit cuz its what you see right away but I love the little details that make the overll project pop out at you. Congrats man, great job.

Your car looks SICK bro. Excellent job.
I can say that I am not a fan of green cars at all but like THIS it works perfectly.

Question. Why the orange pin stripes? Why not red?

WOW! Considering how you have one of the sickest GS' on CL and how you go to A LOT of shows, getting this kind of reaction/complements from you makes everything I've done well worth it. Thank you very much Adrian. I appreciate it.

Guys, if you look at the pic of the Endless Caliper you will notice it is actually beige. We picked that color because we wanted to tie in some color hues from the interior. The beige made it pop and eye catching but not too flashy. The "ENDLESS" on the caliper and the pinstripes on the engine covers were hand painted with the same color. For some reason, it does look orange in that pic though. Just the way it came out, I guess. Possibly because of the different lighting.

ive always wondered how big the rear lip would be on a 11" inch rim... how deep do they go with that offset? i was torn between 10.5 and 11 when i was picking sizes..

There is still about a little less than an inch between the inner lip of the rim and the rear strut, if that answers your question. What offsets did you go with and how big are the front and rear lips on yours?

Btw, your car looks hot in your sig. Nice wheels, huh?
