Trust me on this one! Well it's my fault because im cheap and i got in an accident because and F@# up my whole front of my car and took out half of my bumper so that's how i started on the mods! Also im not into that whole LOUIS VUITTON anymore but im just trying out some fabrics inside my car before i do the whole interior.

lol sounds like my little bro, only he doesn;t even go to school, sits on his *** most of the day though...

But he can sure as hell detail the hell outta a car. He works miracles on a cars paint and has such an eye for the little details, that he can make a car look so damn clean and shiny its not even funny.

one of my interior mod ideas started years back, I just never got around to doing it, but I was gonna use ostrich skin as accents, my mom has a hookup and can get itin like 50 different colors or something for pretty cheap, but I just never made it happen. now that idea is out...

Son;t worry, my interior is like half done, it started out cool, but now its just gonna be changed to one color...

So I came home early from Fontana and since I had my camera with me I decided to have a photoshoot, of my car of course.

Here are some samples. I'll show more if any of you guys are interested either here or at the meet tomorrow.



Excuse my friend for being in the driver seat, I had him drive around until I found good spots. I'll find a way to PS him out. lol

Here's another.

oh yeah! If you can, please part in every other parking space! That would help me with the pictures. If it's not too much to ask, if not then it's all good!

well this is off topic in this section but the meet is over and it was great to meet everyone who came...

Anyway see that black panel ont he side of the trunk, pull that whole panel out, then you will see a clump of brown wires, which is what theya re talkign about in that thread.
