Def a nice show car. But painted drums? C'mon.....that was cool....oh wait....that was never cool. If anything I would've painted them gloss black to take attention AWAY from them and kinda hide them in a sense.. Drum brakes are icky. Make your next mod a rear disc brake conversion and you'll be golden

Keep up the good work though!

Also....you go through wheels like candy, lol.

no actually we sold the carbon fiber ss hood over the winter. i tossed the stock hood on temporarily till we got the new carbon fiber hood. the stock hood was all scratched up and chipped paint so we opted to take it off for the show.

they arent painted they are powder coated. after the current parts get put on the next mod is gonna be SSBC front and rear big brakes. as for the wheels thats only the 3rd set its ever seen.

Same difference. I'm not saying that painting it was bad but powdercoating it would've looked better. I'm saying that drawing attention to your drum brakes in the first place is a horrible/dumb idea. But yeah, that'll be dope when you have the SSBC's all around.

Looks good. Just curious but why did you start with the 2.2 and put on all the exterior when you could have gotten the 2.0 SC to start with?
