            I first had a local machinist attempt to copy janderson's design, which would have been fine if I were 7ft tall. I came to my senses and picked up Massive Lee's set. His craftsmanship is amazing.

              Nicely done! Ronals are always a good choice.

                Did your family's shop do this?

                Looks nice, lots of time right there. It takes me 8+ hours to do a single color wrapping, I couldn't imagine attempting this. Came out great!

                  I found it to be a crazy difference between the weight of the sport wheel and an mtechII wheel (mtech is way heavier).

                        That's a great height, and I really like those ronals.

                        What suspension setup are you on?

                          Thanks. I just have billy sports and Vogtland purple springs with stock drop hats and actually using IE urethane rear spacers w/ spring pads which raised the rear just enough.
                          Before I defiantly had some tire tuck, but I was worried about rubbing with the 225/50's.
                          I love that people ask stupid questions so I dont have.

                              Its the Miller kit w/ KA Motors CAI I don't swear to any performance gains, but it sounds fast! And I think it cleans up the bay a little.

                                Are you in Richmond, VA?? So am I. I hope to see this beauty queen on the road sometime!

                                Looks great...awesome interior, nice wheels, great stance, just really well executed!

                                Agree on the chrome kidneys for such a classy OEM+ look.
