it looks to be in pretty good shape, but i agree with baldy, loose the underhood panelling. Some of the interior trim should be re-painted silver if you want to stick with that color scheme, and im not personally a fan of the color/vinyls on the outside either. Also, from a distance, i like the smoothing over the trim pieces, but up close it looks a little rough, especially around the side signals.



Do you have any pictures at night with the whole interior lit up? Id like to see how the LEDs in the vents came out. On a car with this amount of work (and that cost that much.. 11K damn!), better switches could have been used below the radio.



edit: oh, and TFATF? no... hahah

Cool car!

How does she run?

Not to knock on anyone but that car has nowhere $36,000 in mods. And for $11.5 K it better have a 20B under the hood. Dont get me wrong car looks nice(cept for the dimondplate) but that motor cept for the air filter looks like a stock motor. I see no Greddy pully kit, Greddy belt Kit, It has a stock radiator not a fluidyne, there is no visable ram air intake setup, and doubt you are running 22 psi on a TMIC sorry man wrong place to make stuff up.

You might want to take a look at those. I'm not even a turbo owner, but I can tell that at the least, the radiator and intercooler look stock.





And your name, is that the cat from the Smurfs? (honestly, not trying to be a smartass or anything)
