Not yet!! He's coming back in three weeks to get more panels done. He's getting a crapload of modifications installed before, so we will do a proper photoshoot in the canyon when we meet up again. I'll test drive his car later!!

We did go for a lunch together and I was in the passenger seat... man the car is so hunkered down even on stock coilovers. The engine is so silky smooth, this car has 140k miles on the engine but just got its extensive service done by the Honda.

So lovely.

This was my favorite panel that I have ever worked on!!!

There is a monthly local NSX/S2000 meet in Arcadia. I am usually there doing my tea thing and have seen them quite a few times in the plaza.

Maybe you should swing by and pass out some business cards

I did make a set of nice business card with actual suede on the back but still haven't handed out to anyone. haha I should go to car meets, but I'm not really cool with the hard parking crowd. I should though. haha

So far, it's almost all through referrals.

Got to work on this G35 with some nasty scratches on the panels. Found out all Nissan/Infiniti cars suffer from this.

Super dumb.

Sweet freakin deal, man! That looks excellent! Can't believe how well it'll contour and adhere to such small detailed areas.

Yeah, the Alcantara wouldn't work well with the small curvy pieces like that, but suede works since it stretches freely!

Had a fun photoshoot with this Red FRS last week!

This can is running a Jackson Racing supercharger that puts him around 270whp. It's FAST.

I would love to pique your brain about solutions and looks for a type s interior where the center console sides look like ike turner beat poor tina on them, but missed with the belt buckle...a bunch of times.
Your ideas. I'd like them...and also to get an idea on pricing...

The silver panels on both sides? Post your photo of the interior, let me take a look. Curious how it is.

Worked on this beautiful E36 M3. It's some type of limited edition model too. He just bought the car and the headliner was sagging like crazy. Had to gut it out and refinish it. Did his headliner and B-Pillars. He's coming back for some more later, he's in love. haha

This was like a 10 minute photoshoot. Doing a nice one on Thursday in the canyon.

Started on the shifter boot and e-brake boot!

Thinking of calling it BOOTIT.

Making a style sheet today. I can do it for any car pretty much.

not to talk shit, but the first picture of the bootit reminds me of the shit that woman uses to cover their tits when breast feeding in public.

I like the pattern on the shift boot, but something about it looks off on the brake.

Oh yeah? Hmm maybe the pattern angle?

Did a sunset cruise yesterday. Such a beautiful view from up there.

Not really, but it was his first time with us. Most of us go up twice a week. haha

The WRB BRZ is the fastest one. He runs the group with me. Completely stock engine with wheels, tires, brake pads, and that wing. 2:07 at Buttonwillow.

The red FRS has Header+E85 tune, wheels, tires, brake pads. 2:07 at Buttonwillow.

That Grey STI looks stock but has a lot of suspension mods, running on Ohlins coilovers, Whiteline bushings everywhere!

If less than 10 car group, yes. If more than 10 cars, then we just chill cruise. But chill is fast still. haha

But never to the point where it becomes a reckless driving. I'm one of the admins who run the group and we ban every single member who double lanes or make a crazy unsafe pass.

Most of us go to the track, so we have fun at the track and chill in the canyons. Usually the slow street racers go insane in the canyon and die.

Doing some more panels for the red NSX. He's getting the finished install panels installed tomorrow around sunset time and we will go to ACH for the photoshoot! He got so many modifications done since we did his panels several weeks ago.

Meeting up with Tyler for his headliner tomorrow in Fontana around 1pm so it's going to be a longgggggg day for me. haha

Man, it was so fun in the canyon shooting these cars today. I was in the NSX for the whole time throughout the drive. NSX is just on another level. Can't believe this is almost a 20 year old car.

The mountain is definitely very pretty! The actual LA city doesn't look as beautiful as that site though! haha

Haha seriously. Looks beautiful after some rainy days though which is rare for us, right?
