    Im not surprised, it took him 2 years to put a lip on it

        Im just glad JCarp came out of the woods to talk trash about that wiring job.

        I think you'll shut everyone up with a picture of a burnout. Not sure how I forgot to mention that as a requirement for a LS car... my bad R3V

          Lol... nice work - great looking car and even with only 320hp it would be a blast to drive.

          You could always cover up most of the wiring with a couple of GTO engine covers :)

                    Beautiful car. Does that autoberry kit come with the vinyl to wrap the hard cover for the back of the seat as well?

                      Thank you for all of the kind words! In regards to the autoberry kit it does not come with vinyl to wrap the back. I used a vinyl spray paint which is pretty close to color matched on Natur
