i'm their art director though.. they have the potential to make me look bad...
either way - my day usually consists of cracking out some mock ups + being on here or ziptied + looking over their shoulders to make sure they're getting their stuff done (so i don't look bad)...

Random thought...

The Veilside Fortune body kit is super sexy for RX7 FD, but why are all the Veilside widebody kits super ugly for our Zs?

but wide body kits are a headache.. i had 20mm and 50mm over fenders on my s13 and fitment was a nightmare.. and that was just for over fenders..

i also dig the stock lines of a z33 though... doesn't need much to make it look nice - Amuse and Strosek (or the Shine Auto knock offs) i think are my favorite kits for the Z right now..

Yeah - I'm friends with Ben... Did his new site in trade for him fabricating an exhaust for me... Might actually be headed over that way tonight - just got some Fe shirts printed for him too (girls and guys Ts) and they came in yesterday..

Edit: site is freedengineering.com - site would look way better if Ben would actually update it lol.. even threw my car in the fabrication gallery
