Really cool looking body. I'm planning a similar paint job with black for my Tekin conversion. It'll probably be black and gold.

to be honest, the wheels are now my least favourite piece of the car now. i like them, but this car isn't what it was meant to be when i started it. i'd like another set of white HPIs to go on it now.
