I'm lucky I got home safely, BOY was it pouring on the coquihalla... My wipers on max speed couldn't keep it away from my windshield. Never seen rain like that before in my life and hydroplaning at 165KPH isn't as fun as it sounds.

speaking of Adrian;
Is that your old car at the Kia dealer?
I didn't have time to stop and look...
it looked to have a carbon fiber hood - which I think Adrian bought off of Tjay - but I can't recall if it was put on your old car...
if you played your cards right, maybe you can get it back, and be ahead?

Trust me, I think about picking it up rather often...
It has the sedan high rise on it now (pretty cool/rare actually) that the dealer put on. The badging is a little weird and has a stock clutch in it now though
.Maybe one day I'll come home with it. I thought someone had bought it but I guess not. I highly doubt it sells any time soon.

google the 60's ss stripes man!!!!!!!!! they all start at the back of the hood and fall off the hood.... they dont go to the bumpers or the roof.... also with the cars of today the trunk lid is not flat no more.... lets just say it wouldnt look right if i did what the original stripes actually are.... so instead i said well lets make it more like the s10 extreme package.... it would look better....
besides they dealership this car is at had 0 emails or calls in about 1.5 months..... in 1 weekend they had 3 emails... i personally think it looks great... however i can see how people would hate it coz of the bumble bee factor..... regardless that is the exact same plot file i used for my car and you all thought it look good.... my point is with the right concept it too can look badass....
2 diff concepts for orange.... one is the snake skin and the other is a burnt orange metalic but slightly off color or maybe say darker...

I know the original rally stripes only go on the front of the hood to the trunk lid but I think it looks incomplete. doesn't mean that it looks bad. just my opinion.
On a side note, Soundjunky how long are the 80 F bodies?
