I like it. But I wish you wouldnt have used that center piece for the front bumper that the Quwhees kit comes with, it just looks too big and now you can barely see the sexy FMIC!

That is A LOT of filler on the bumper too, you better be careful loading it on the trailer and bumps at shows and shit man.

Thanks for all the kind words guys.

Mike, I didnt think the bumper looked right without something to widen the middle of the bumper. However, I HATE how the middle piece of the Quwhees kit just look like a piece that is glued on and out of place. Therefore, we molded the entire piece into the bumper to give it that 350z type nose in the front and it looks factory.

The guys at the shop are doing amazing work. The bumper is Hella Heavy, but oh well.

I cant wait to get it out of the shop and pull it into a show.

However, It will be up for sale this entire season. I am pulling out of the show scene and getting engaged.

I had a lot of fun with it and hope to end while the going is good and I the car still has a lot of orginality.

I trailered the car for the first year. but the last year and a half I have driven it to every show. No point in building a car you cant drive, so I said I need to at least enjoy it while I have it.

WOW, very very nice man! Best conversion ive ever seen. Cant wait to see the painted pics. The makeover turned out excellent from the sides to the front. I'm in the middle of a makeover AGAIN too. I'll get somes pics up soon. I didnt do anything as drastic. Just switched from drift front to stillen and molded the turn lamps on the bumper, new projectors and new seats.

there is a point of "too much", you do know that, right?

I just wish my car was as fast as it was loud. people tell me i should use my sub to push it, it might go faster.

I think that I like the stock style lights better. But from the looks of your car in general, I know its a job of good workmanship. If you like it, then thats all that matters.
