    Not sure what's going on with the off-roading-a-stanced-car thing, but OK (I mean some guys rallied an F40.... ).

    So when's the air suspension going on? You know that's the logical next step.

    I'm thinking of mounting some modular LED fogs on mine to replace the stock ones.

    "off road" and "send nudes" just reminded me of the story.

    Guess my humor didn't translate well.
    If there's genuine offense, then I offer a likewise genuine apology..... ;)

    Otherwise?
    Well........

    Cost me about 100 bucks for the wrap off eBay. Basically ordered large sheets of black and large sheets of gray and just cut the shapes. Took about a week and a half to finish the whole car, just a few hours every day

    Not much had happened since the last post. Here is me on the 4th of July
    IMG_6587.JPG
    This is my actual fitment
    IMG_6647.JPG
    IMG_6648.JPG
    Took a trip to Santa Cruz
    IMG_6706.JPG
    IMG_6716.JPG
    Had a photoshoot down there
    IMG_6755.JPG
    IMG_6775.JPG
    IMG_6787.JPG
    Installed a light bar
    IMG_6891.JPG
    Painted my wheels white
    IMG_6892.JPG IMG_6893.JPG IMG_6899.JPG IMG_6901.JPG
    Shot a video with my friend (link to video at the end of post)
    IMG_6925.JPG IMG_6931.JPG IMG_6932.JPG
    Some screenshots from the video, would recommend checking it out, yes the burnout is real ;)
    IMG_7516.jpg IMG_7517.jpg IMG_7518.jpg
    Made some headlight covers again
    IMG_6944.JPG
    Spotted in traffic
    IMG_7017.jpg
    Painted the spare too
    IMG_7031.JPG
    Took the white plastidip off, was going on a trip to seattle, wasn't going to last anyways. Put my roof rack back on with one spare on the roof and one spare in the trunk
    IMG_7071.JPG
    As soon as I drove into Medford the car started overheating. Turns out the light bar blocked air flow so I took the bumper off to keep the engine cool
    IMG_7074.JPG
    Made it to Seattle
    IMG_7088.JPG
    Spent a few days up there. On the way back home it drove pretty smoothly. Once I was near Shasta I noticed a vibration that I haven't felt before. Turns out one of the tires had a hole in the sidewall. Tossed my spare on
    IMG_7148.JPG
    Finally got my second car registered and insured
    IMG_7319.JPG
    Plannin on bagging the benz, render of how that would look:
    IMG_7352.JPG IMG_7353.JPG
    Mounted the diffuser on the Prius
    IMG_7385.JPG
    Git my benz a hardtop
    IMG_7402.JPG
    Since I got another car I could finally start doing the body kit I been planning for the Prius. Started with the lip
    IMG_7441.JPG IMG_7442.JPG IMG_7443.JPG IMG_7444.JPG
    There was a large gap in the center. Filled it with foam yesterday, cut the foam down today and put bondo on
    IMG_7512.JPG
    This evening after coming home from work I sanded down the bondo and repainted the lip. Will mount it back on tomorow along with a completed camo pattern. Next I'll start the sodeskirts and ducktail spoiler.
    As promised, here is the link for the video

    Nice work! What is the front lip spoiler from - looks like you were using rivets to hold it in place..?

    The front lip I made from my old cracked bumper, just cut the bottom portion off and riveted on, some foam+bondo+paint+wrap later and it's done!
