Damn it, it didnt post what my response was...

Anyhow, I have to swap some panels off of the GSL-SE to fix the damage from the last accident..

I drove it around all day like that, and everyone revved on me.

I guess it's ricer territory to have a car missing body parts, and they considered me a threat....?

But the stikers are good for 40+ RWHP, and taking off the body panels is a great weight reduction scheem

Or maybe he saw it in a movie (F&F or 2F2F)...
