Beautiful, beautiful job done. I couldnt even tell the lights are custom done, this is something that would have sold if it came off the line like mad. If wasent trying to do a bone dry sleeper out of my 98 I would try to beat you on looks lol. Now thinking of it, I might just have to.....

The projector retrofit is one of my favorite mods, third in line behind the T56 swap (2nd) and the IRS swap (1st). Aftermarket projector headlamps use lens's that are horrible at focusing the beams, they are inferior projector housings, and they the adjustment screws tend to break with the slightest touch. I had a set of aftermarket projectors for about a week before I did the retrofit, had to get temp headlamps while the retrofit was going on and I found them for cheap. The retrofit if I were to do another set, would most likely take a good day to finish, excluding curing of the sealant (we used the same sealant that shops use for windshields. Only regret I have is not going with the Phillips 85122+ 4300k bulbs instead of the Phillips 85122+ 5500k bulbs.
I love absolutely everything you have done to that car. The lights are amazing.

I was deadset on Kaenen till I my friend told me I had to pay a little out of pocket for it, so I looked around and told him I wanted the steeda and he found one that I didn't need to pay anything extra for=P

Original plans for the GT was to find a black cobra, trade this in, and murder it out, but eventually the redfire color grew on me and the auto had to come out.. I should have never opened that can of worms lols.

Looks were the last thing I really wanted to do, the only parts I bought without it already being in the shop was the scoops, I hated the fake sidescoops. If it weren't for me being hit twice and being keyed I would still have a stock looking GT with suspension lols=P Gotta <3 haters^^

Thank you sir, I've received quite a bit of flack for some of the things I've done, now that it's starting to look closer to the finished product, it's feeling like it's coming together nicely.


Well, here's the thread to the numbers my bucket puts down.. in all my badass sohc goodness.

There are certain times when I see that car and I think, eh, maybe it's a bit over done.

The work is stellar, and amazing, but perhaps a bit over done.

And then there are days I look at it and say, **** me, that's awesome!

Today is a **** me it's awesome day!

Well, when I was keyed, I parked on the top floor of a garage with no other cars there on that floor or the one under it. If people wanna hate, theres nothing you can do to stop em.

Lols, thank you kindly sir, it's still a work in progress. I have quite a bit left to do on the exterior but I'm not about to spend money on it anytime soon, saving up to finish my suspension.
