You got a SWEET ride! Did you go through a specific shop in the islands or was it done on the mainland? Any problems with the constant shipping? I'm thinking about shipping my car to the islands...hmm

Ben and his crew from Bulletproof Automotive/GT-RR supplied me all the parts and Ben sent it to Signal Auto to do all the labor.

Maybe you can put little markings on the side of your door showing all the "kills" (accidents) you caused.

Oh well, people need to be more careful. It's not like you're wearing a Bikini or anything. Or are you?

who is the shipper? Matson? Do you trust them? Was there ever any damage from shipping it? I don't know if I could trust them to load and unload the car...they might try to launch it.

Car looks awesome. What tire brand and sizes are you running now that the show is over. They do not appear to be the Toyos.
