Is hotness! I even kinda like the Kawi green.

I gotta know - how do you intend to get that through the visual smog?

Yeah nice green...is the rest of the car going to match as well?

Sweet looking build! I am curious as well about your plans for the visual...

Do you know some people who know some people who rob some people?

Nice quote. That moves you up a notch in my book.




That puts you at notch one.

shit man, the plan for visual is take it to San Jose mah boy's got a hook up for $200, which I think is pretty cheap.

as far as Visual to the cop i.e if i get pulled over ima try and convince them that its Diesel or runs on Bio-diesel

hell NO... im just going for that " punch you in the face" when i pop my hood, since nobody really is going to know anything about it beside its turbo by looking at it lol...

I have 1 gal of flat black primer and that whats prolly going on it after it gets running, not really on the top of my priority list at the moment...
