    Not my car, but this will give you an idea. The handles are shaved on this car also, so it makes it look a bit cleaner.


    03 GTP...Its got pulleys and stuff.

    I like the look on the coupe, but don't think it would look good on a sedan. Nice work though...

    Door poppers are real cool, but always worried that if the battery dies, how do you get in to pop the hood latch? lol... just wondering?

    You just reroute the hood release so you can access it from outside the car.

    I went the poor mans way of doing it. You can't really tell from these pictures but I have silver decals over the holes. Only in the last two. The first picture was before the decals.

    Too my knowledge I don't think they did anything with that.


    Here is another pic while the body shop was working on it. You can kinda get an idea of how many holes and where they are.

    I hope they removed all the stuff before paniting it? Mirrors,handles,bumpers,etc? If not does it have paint on all the edges?
