Any full side profile pics of the white rims? I usually don't like white but it looks like you may be able to pull it off.

I'll try and get some tomorrow. As long as no one walks around the whole car I'm safe because everyone that has seen it just laughs that one side is different from the other. I really need to stop with the plasti dip stuff. I tried to make eye lids with it but it looked weird so i took it off.

Wooo. I was at Tanforan Mall today with a friend. I had my hood open and a cop rolled up and pulled up next to me and asked if I had any illegal parts in my car. Blah blah blah. Told him I had an exhaust and he jokingly started to pull out a pen to write a citation/ticket/whatever.

Ended up talking about how my turbo 4 cylinder is making 280HP. I guess he was amazed to be getting 280HP out of the 4 banger.

Little did he know, this engine is closer to around 500BHP hahaha.

Phew, I love having a stock appearing engine bay.

Very cool cop though. Gotta love that.

Damn you lucked out with the cop for sure..my last run in was anything but pleasant. Granted the officer was courteous but he still handed me multiple citations.

Haha, it was alright. The very first second he pulled up I pretty much knew he wasn't going to write anything since he had a smile on his face as he was pulling up.

Even if he had stepped out and checked under the car. My test pipe is wrapped with a gutted cat.

And my engine bay?

Pfft. Please. It's all stock officer! I swear!



So those of you thinking of blinging out your engine bay. Be careful... =)

It's funny a sheriff pulled me aside at SFO when i had my supercharged (550+ WHP) mustang and knew i had no cats etc.... He ended up giving me a number to his buddies tuning shop instead of a fixit. I dont think I'd ever be able to pull that off in an import, cops are biased lol
