if i want to put 1 decal or 20 in my engine bay, that would be my porogative? some are covering holes, but mostly for my own personal scheme. doing a white scheme, with 100 decals per sq.inch! no exterior decals!

Exclamation plexi mirror!

BTW, does the A-Pillar fit correctly? I've seen some threads that look like people are having a fitment issue...what's the deal...
has to be templated, cut, routed, sanded! DAP construction adhesive was used to adhere it. very labor intensive! the plexi mirror which comes in a variety of sizes, i got a 36"x42" & about 1/8" deep sheet which is about $75 if i remember correctly. made by a company called "block plastics". pm me for more info, and the a-pillar fitment issue.

this is not right....

I created that meet....aventura mall.

I wish I was there....looks like a good turnout. Kman, car looking really good.

Too bad I wasn't there, since I'm germany, but I won't trade the autobahn for a meet :thefinger

I'm coming down in june-july...probably will see some of you guys.

Thanks for the pics and video.

This is from the original meet:

engine and interior of kman's car are overdone, IMO, but the exterior is hot! and the trunk is mad clean too!

props to you for putting that much money/effort in your ride.

oh btw i got the magnaflow exhaust. (i PMed you about it a few times)

i love it, it sounds great!!! and it gave me some power too.
