Thanks. I blacked the roof and changed all of the chrome to a matte graphite to tie in the wheels.

Thanks. The Niche wheels were a gift from my girlfriend so I don't know exactly what she paid.

You certainly like your eye catching colors!

I'd like to see a picture of the rainbow of cars you have!

Thanks guys. I've always liked to have something that sticks out from the crowd. I told everyone before I did this one that it was going to be a love it or hate it color , there's not really a mid ground lol . Here's a pic with the two Supras I had . Sorry for the low quality pics, you can see more pics of the yellow one if you goggle Sport Compact Car sept of 98 it was on the cover and featured inside .i liked my E55 in silver too . It was a clean looking set up but I've had it for years and as the cars have gotten more affordable there are bout a half dozen silver ones in my town that are lowered and have wheels on them so it was time to change it up or get a new car . I still love the car so I chose to mix it up a bit .i guess that has had a snowball effect as the car had the Klemmann stage two mods before and now I've ordered a bunch of new goodies for under the hood and I'm going to shoot the surge tanks etc to freshen up the engine bay as well .

Somehow I feel any pictures wouldn't do your car justice. I don't think it looks bad. I do think there's a lot lost by not seeing it in the flesh.

Respect given for the effort nonetheless.

That's very true . It's much better in person plus all of the pics I've posted are **** as far as quality goes . I'm going to get a buddy of mine to take some shots of it next week if time allows.

Funny you should say that , I just posted a gym pic the other day of the Karbolyn that I drink during training and said the same thing.

You should drink it from a washer fluid jug for amusement.
