I love the stock 99 spec look very very much but my car's gonna turn into more of a track set up with either feed or amemiya widebody kit.

Nice SSM. Are you in SoCal or NorCal? A few of those pics look like they're taken in SF...

The same thought crossed my mind.. You can see an Academy of Arts banner..

LOL, you guys are right!

I went to the Academy of Art in SF and then worked in LA for about 3 years.

Those pics were taken during the trip to Oregon, where my brother lives.

We stopped by in SF for a day, so he took some there as well.


And yes, those ugly sharpie doodles are stickers of all the tracks I've been to:
- Infineon
- all 3 Willow Springs
- Buttonwillow
and I actually haven't been to this one yet but just had the sticker of Autoclub Speedway, so I put it on before I left the US (just for a year. I'll be back)
However... they are so ugly... When I get back, they are gonna come off.


Thanks for all the compliments guys, although my car isn't really modified or anything just yet.

so my brother sent me a couple more pics...








This one's a little big but...

I have to disagree, the red top stitching looks out of place. I think black would have looked much better. You should be able do the dash without having to stitch anything at all actually, except the sides where the door panels come in. I like the idea though.

Well I'm not saying alot of the stitching is necessary, and a bit of it I probably wouldn't do for mine, but I still think it looks pretty good overall. And of course I'd use another color, but you already know that haha. Speaking of which, can I buy some more of that material and send it to you to use the blue thread on for the whole interior? LOL

Here's a few of my heap. Future plans include feed sideskirts and perhaps a rear diffuser. I'm actually content for the time being.

I am in search of a solution to my lack of centercaps. I guess I'm going to try some Volks; however, I hate to put Volk caps on Work wheels. I found some "blank" ones but I think I need the "high" caps which don't come blank. Anyone have any experience with caps for CR Kais??

I photographed David Hayes' 20B over the weekend. It was gloomy and rainy but we made it a fun time.

Here is 1 preview photo. David has all the others so he will have the liberty of posting his own car.

We talked about that a bit. How people will say it is "ricer", bottom line is David digs the look. I personally think it looks awesome, and it makes the car look even more beast as he cruises in your rear view mirror.

At first I didn't like the lights, but they grow on you. I hope David puts up more pics!

Yeah, I did most of the work myself. We didn't cut anything. However, hindsight being 20/20, I would have cut the lip of the fender instead of rolling it in, that would have made it a bit easier, but I had already rolled the fenders before. It will take quite a while and a bit of manipulation of the fender roller to stretch the fender like this, but it will stretch.

I think it looks great! And who says you need center caps? I haven't had center caps on my wheels for several years now lol.

I kinda like those lights. Reminds me of an Audi R8. Does David have a write-up on those? I don't think I'd do it, but it would be interesting to read.

i honestly don't think there's an official center for that wheel, but i think there's something out there that works...

http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...ry=27&wheel=80

check the images at the bottom of the red honda s2000 it's got a white center that's just a flat cap. something is apparently out there that will atleast fit the hole and cover the thing... might not have work engraved in it but that's all dependent on what you feel is needed. might wanna hit up the s2k boards and see if you can track down the owner or hit up work and see if they know what will fit in their wheel there.

good luck!
