      The front spoiler is like a camaro stlye it does help hide the frame in the front. I was thinking about painting it blue to match the body color??

      We have built alot of highend project with big HP motors and the carbonfiber drive shaft is really not that expensive. I think $800 with the ujoints and yoke. it is garrantied to 850 hp and up.

      yes I had to do a quick fix on that for the new Sony doulbe din dvd. It is a touch screen with a Magden on board computer. It will have a full readout from the Fast fuel injection computer. so we moved the Autometer down in the stock stereo location. I have plans to clen that up after Sema. it has to leave monday for Vegas.
