yep its custom...the car got wrecked bad and the guy who fixed it took about a year and 6 months to fix it and paint it...in that light you cant tell it has a custom paint job so when I get better pics I will post them

Oh and yes that is a blitz front bumper that look great on this car and then black widow sides that I hate but when I started this project I got them for free..the back is wings west

Very nice... not sure if I could wait a a year and a half for that though... however if it was an Enzo... that would be different... all in all very clean job. Why did you opt to keep the lock for the trunk? Do you not like the actuator setups from Dakota Digital?

I wanted to keep the lock on the trunk because I have seen so many actuators go out and I did not want to deal with that
