Yes, an amazing build w/no expense spared (sort of). Did you know he was running the full WiseFab suspension & shattered the front lower control arm, a few months ago, at an Optima AX

He ended up buying Dallas's lower control arm & hub

Thank you sir. The SE lip and JDM rear were obviously painted. The car has its original paint. I did have the trunk repainted as when I de-badged it, the logos were silhouetted on the trunk so had to be done.
