Nice bro, looks wicked. I like how the paint turned out smooth. Definitely looking forward for the final results with them remounted. Might have to give this a try...

haha...nah, not a big fan of the carbon fiber shroud, rather save the money. at first i thought doing it gold might be too much but im gonna wait till after i install the rest tomorrow and see how they look...i got a feeling that theres enough black under there to paint the shroud gold and still have some nice contrast.

yea i've spoke to Igor for a while now...was gonna get some stuff done but now im short on cash (gets costly if you do the iron-man along with all the housing etc. painted)
i've been comptenplating adding some sort of gold to the housing but i got a feeling it might look akward...i gotta decide on that still.

bro i get the same exact thing, its something with the HFCs cause when i put them on thats when it started. I have no idea what it is though.


And black headlights with gold projectors would be SICK! lol i told status elite to do it a few weeks ago. They have similar rims.

the fuji emblem is plastic welded on, jsut take a small flatheaded screwdriver and scrape the thin layer of plastic off and then push the chrome looking pins thru the existing holes and voila its finito =0)
