Damn that looks pretty sick! I like the back alot too, but damn that person is pretty brave for having nitrous and FI at the sametime. Wonder how much it helps with a turbo.

Decent amount of money in the build. Wonder why he went with a replica kit?

the nitrous is sprayed on the intercooler for extra cooling on demand.... look at the piping in front of the intercooler

That looks authentic to me. I think he just removed the mesh.

Maybe it is legit kit. Hard to tell because it looks like the black plastic piece looks to be missing from the front of the bumper.

Very cleanly put together. I don't think the kit is replica...it just fits too well. The nitrous may just be for show.

I'm not really a fan of the car though...its got way to much goin on, and the spoiler/rims/decals really kill it.

I'm going to have to agree with pdxhak; that black bar you see is the the safety bar which is painted black; there is no black plastic over it.

Still, a great looking 8!

Yeah he has a ton of stickers and **** going on but its because he is sponsored. Without all that its pretty clean. I just cant believe its gutted, I wish there were pics of the interior.

Thumbs up
I agree with the corner lights, but its still sick. I love the graphics. not a big fan of the brake color. The rims have a very unique look which to me, accents the car very well.
+1!
