I do have to ask, though, I thought the 10th AEs were S5. Why the S4 lights?

Allthough i am sub-curious what the s5 taillights woudl look like mocked up like the s4's being painted white, instead of there being black in the s5's make it clear. probably ugly as hell so i'm going ot take a nap.

That's what I thought... but I was confused by the S5 style trim on the body.. I guess I never got a good look at a 10thAE before.. I am a rotary failure. *cries quietly in corner*...

That hood in the background is just a shell. That guy has his car GUTTED! There is nothing there, and all the support under the hood was removed, so he has a lanyard to hold the hood there. I belive the car was intended to be a rally car, but he's driving it on the street right now.

The car does look good in the pic, though I haven't seen it in person Now we'll have two freshly painted AE's going to SS7... of course mine looks a bit different now

Oh damn I know that red car. Yeah that thing IS GUTTED!

I think they even removed the bottom frame of the hood so it's just a flimsy sheet of metal
