Dude.... your car is absolutely gorgeous. It's shining rediculously hard in those pics, it's just.... perfect.

P.S. Some nice big brakes behind those wheels would look even better

your car is very inspirational. I don't want to be a copy-cat but I might.....just might shave my door locks and just use the remote keyless entry.
love your car man! nice job.
