[Robbie Dowdy]

Very cool. What product are you using for the undercoating? Looks like a decent product from the pics.

[MirandaBuilt]

[MirandaBuilt]

WOW! Did I miss the specs on the wheels and tires? I would love to know! Thanks!

[MirandaBuilt]

sorry the fronts are 19x8 and the rear is a 20x12.

[Motown 454]

Another awesome car ! Nice work guys.

[MirandaBuilt]

Those camaro's are very nice. Love the stance. You've got to PM me and tell me the secret in painting carbon fiber stripes. Nice work.
Thanks Lenie

[Chevrolaine]

Nice, REAL NICE!!

[Chewy72ss]

Oh my goodness...

That thing looks SO SICK aired out. Excellent work.

[cityofthesouth]

The black with carbon is killer. I've been seeing flat clear over carbon here and there and that would have looked wicked on this too.

[MirandaBuilt]

After taking a break from the car its time to get back at for the round. sorry so few pics. we wired the car, had the stereo installed and built the custom exhaust just waiting on cutout's.
