All of the trim has been redone to match the brushed, tinted centers of the wheels.

It's CF also. I'm just not a fan of ones like the Vorsteiner.

Not that I know of.

And i'm not dissing on the Vorsteiner piece for those that have it. Its just not me. Kind of like I don't understand redheads, blue eyes or not.

But I guess I'll be off googling now.

Looks nice. I'll dig around in the cushions of the sofa and have ACG order me one.

I haven't got a clue. I'm going to walk around until I trip over it. Seriously. Peter from ACG is out there and will know tomorrow where it is and will be doing a photoshoot. But being "unconventional" I'll probably just Easter Egg it.

I don't think so. I have to leave no later than Friday morning. The car will ride back in a transport. I have to also deal with getting the Mustang Dyno that will be at the show transported back to San Diego.

So funny that you used the cushions of the sofa comment as I throw that one at my wife very often. Sometimes I go stash a wad of cash for her there just for laughs.

Too bad for those of us not able to make it. I was awed when I saw C63_Guy's car in-person with his custom flair conversion. Yours takes it even a little wider. I'll just wait for the numerous pics that will end up being taken during the course of SEMA week.

The car will be in the Mustang Dyno booth. Probably parked on the demonstration dyno.

.... that makes it easier to find your car .... otherwise I would have just followed your trail of loose change

Leaving tonight for SEMA .... 2 tanks of gas and a quart of Castrol RS later I'll be in Vegas.
