Default Teaser: New look/sound/performance courtesy of CL members donor car...*pics*

As many of you know, CL member JesLet put a lot of time and $ into a beautifully done SC400 only to get to drive it for a total of 2 days before it was totalled. Very sad. Due to the amount of work he put into the car, there are lots of parts to be had so I grabbed a few to give my car a little different attitude.
Before: (on 20"s)

After: (added 19" staggered Axis Supermesh, Injen intake, true dual Magnaflow exhaust)





I will post better pics (these are cell phone pics)in a few days once I take some. Thanks Dennis know your car is living on through giving several others a new life. See his part out thread here.

Always liked those axis wheels. I think you went too dark smoking the tails.

I bought the car with the tails like that. The are actually painted. Yes, you read correctly. Painted. It's 1 part "dab of black" and 10 parts clear. Darker than I would have done too, but whatever. P&H Protection will likely be helping me get these redone to a more respectable look (and more leagal BTW) probably sooner than later. They certainly went better with the drug dealer, slammed on chrome 20"s look.

I can't believe you haven't sold that BBK yet, I figured that would have been the first thing someone would have swooped from you.
