YOU funny Big Mike! At the rate you're going, those shoes will never hit the road! Yup, Vinny's Fit in my living room as I watch TV sitting in the driver's seat and your MzFit shoes, framed and on top of the fireplace (bear head and marlin taken down). Whoa what a visual!

Good job! Like it! Just make sure you put locks on!!!

I agree!!! Been using 87 for awhile now and just put in some 91 and the car feels more responsive and has more torque.

I know Mikey is going to have a very trick looking ride with the drop and wheels.... I have a strong feeling the gears and pulleys are already cranking out new ideas that will take his car even further into the zone.

^^ Lip looks good. I think it would have been better if JDP trimmed the edges of the CF lip to flow with the outer lines on the side of the Sport lip.
