I paid strippers to get the job done lol.. they appear to be the only classy ones in Vegas haha.

So the Fedex guys woke me up at 810 am today w these ^ boxes.. they is purdy.. except im bummed that the heavy negative offset SINKS my lugs down deep into these things.. would have liked to see these bronze Rays lugs i paid so dearly for.. looks like im going to have to go super long extended lugs in closed end and BURNT TITANIUM.. the REAL stuff.

again , i bought 19x11 super deep concave, -6 offset and padi for the extra bespoke color option.

Thanks to Eric at GetYourWheels/Wheel Studio..

JUN Hyperlemon awd z hood.. this hood is huge.. and from what im told, will require some heavy trimming to this beautiful rear naca vent.. ( my new friend Ampur is the owner of the blue Z ive posted in here a few times)
...the original Jun z has no firewalls and the battery and reservoirs are removed and relocated.. so there sat the rear top mounted twin turbos and intakes, right behind the plenum... this hood will require i use hood spacers and still will need to be cut near this vent and trimmed to fit a standard vq plenum.. but I DONT CARE.. lol
this is a 1500 dollar hood that youd all instantly hate me for if i mentioned what i paid for it.. i had to jump on it.


another fine piece form Fred V at VIS.. thanks bro.. best sponsor relationship i could ever hoped for..

are you aware of whether they have more of the double hump roof panels? I have been debating one since mastergrade first produced them years ago.

this roof is a bit different than the Asuka MG version.. theres less space between them. Im not sure about stock on them.. i bought two and waited quite awhile for them to come in to stock, a few months in fact.

I have no problem waiting a couple months. PM me if you want to keep the details off the forum. I'm curious on price as well.

yeah np.. retail is 790, ebay sells for 800 shipped in most places.. i can usually do a touch better than that though. nothing huge ( margin on cf versus fiberglass is much less) but still, money is money.

btw.. got a sponsorship with TOYO TIRE USA yesterday! Pretty stoked.. too bad im not lined up to be in a SEMA booth this year or they would have been FREE.. but a partial sponsorship no less was quite cool. These are stupid expensive tires..
