Seibon CF Doors and Hatch Installation
Airrex Elite air suspension installation
Lenso Spec-F custom powdercoat and install w/ Nitto Invos
Custom front and side skid plate/splitters
Password JDM cooling plates and engine covers
Custom CF strut bar and supercharger cover
Custom powdercoated harness bar and GT-Spec rear brace bar
Custom tint tailights and 3rd brake light
Install custom headlights
Custom CF overlay on rear quarter panels and roof
Weld on custom exhaust tips

I dig that front fenders. this kit is no joke

I'm so glad I didn't have to watch them load my car onto that trailer. I do believe I would have had a heart attack! I'm hoping its not too bad coming off. I can't freaking wait till Sunday! I can't say it enough thank you Lohit!

All that $$ and no enclosed trailer :p

Lol I know trust me! We're lucky its getting back in time for nationals I'll tell you that much. Never trust a transport company when they tell you don't worry we can get your car back on time for your big event just call us a day or two in advance! BS! The company knew the whole story from the beginning when they shipped it to LA and knew we were only going to have a few days to spare with getting the car back in time for nationals. I called him several times along the way to update him and every time he assured me all he needed was a day or two notice. He said this to me so many times it was obvious to me that he was a little irritated with the updates so of course when the car is ready for pick up his trailers are full and can't help us....great! Like I said I'm just glad I wasn't forced to drive it back from LA!

Yes I will be there and yes Lohit put the boards on the truck for me already! He's awesome, thinks of everything! And as for the pick up we in west Virginia have what we call"open carry laws" and I do believe I'll be exercising my rights tomorrow lol

Better than anyone else's, good job.

A few more pics of #002! Check him out @ Z Nationals this weekend :tup:

Since this got trailered there and you only used silicone to install because you didn't want bolt holes, i take it this is just a show piece? Track use at 150mph plus I don't see silicone holding.

For a full track build rivets/bolts are definitely the way to go :tiphat:

But for a DD, and even weekend track warrior, the silicone will be plenty strong. Nomodsjk just drove from WV to GA for Z Nationals and just let me know that there weren't any issues whatsoever. Not bad for the first ~650 miles on his Z after we did a full transformation, including air suspension! :tup:
