Love what you've done to it... Question? Headlights are regular SL65 blk style IE ONLY painted on lower half of internals OEM but you must've added slight window tint or vinyl product to headlight covers? look's perfect! What tint %?
I'm currently involved in same upgrades IE Mishadesigns Widebody kit, custom Racemesh grilles for ALL openings on kit, RENNEN Modular 20"s (brand new SuperConcave design, I'll have the very 1st set in world)
Mishadesigns kit itself is a relative bargain. Love to meet up when mine is completed, Misha is set to make a Pro video w/ALL SLM builds. I'm really torn on final re-paint color but most likely Gloss blk w/multi-Matte accents (Don't think I could deal w/upkeep on a FULL matte finish, if a bird kraps on it & you don't see it instantly & remove it your fukd
no clear also means rock chips ahoy' etc)

from mfest x targa trophy
got the 82mm tb from s550 on there i made my own plate with the mill and welded it to the housing and bored the shaft
made custom intake tubes thermal wrapped
surge tanks and manifolds ported and polished
ice box is in with meziere pump and cm30 in back
new larger HE
and sum other lile mods here and there, doing MHP billet cams next and ported heads
the single fogger nitrous will be upped with a nx direct port soft line set up
, prior to most of the mods above it made 501 tq and with just the 82mm mod and ported surge tanks i was amazed to see it pick up to 544 wtq and that was after 8 hours of adjusting the damn throttle body it had sum leaks and idle high issues but dc got it right and only had time to varify power without tuning it , picked up huge! really really suprised

Looks great, J! I like it better now.
Are you really wearing an Ewok hat? LOL....
Hey, what did the car run in the 1/4 at Mfest? I saw the video of the "race" with the Lambo, but not a real run. How'd she do?
