Armen, who did your steering wheel?

RE-Mama, car looks legit. What's the story with the rear fenders again? That front lip is definitely growing on me

The wheel was done by some Slovanian guy who mainly does BMW's. I got his contact info off a BMW forum. I can look for it if anyone is interested

Yeah that steering wheel is on point! If you wouldn't mind providing his contact info I'd greatly appreciate it (my other other car could really use his talents)

Nice to see some real FIA Recaros instead of the stock bottom mount ones (non FIA & non DOT) everyone is so crazy for.

the rear fenders are custom made with metal flares to basically accommodate wide *** wheels without doing a widebody. Trying to keep this as clean as possible. Right now I have 18x9.5 +22 wheels with a 20mm spacer and there is still plenty of room. I am thinking about being a cool kid and stuff something more aggressive back there.

Looking good. Sorry I missed you at SS. I didn't see you pitted in the back garage and when I finally spotted you from the grandstand around 3 pm it appeared that you were departing. Would have enjoyed checking out your ride and meeting you in person. Hopefully, next year!!

Yeah, I was bummed that the garage space they put me in was pretty far from all the SS festivities. I guess they only put real cool cars closer to the action lol

Thumbs up

Taking a break after street tuning with the famous 'Renna OEM Tunner.'

Notice the nice titanium finish on the Fikses...... moreso on the front. Brake dust resulting from pulling her down from triple digits over and over again

Car runs like an absolute champ at 1 bar boost. I have a video I may post up, although we were *ahem* in Mexico at the time

Looks good, Rich!

Here are some pics from last Sunday at Garden of the Gods. We were a little late trying to get there before the sun went down.

Great shots Mike, the FD looks so much sleeker than the Supra. I think I'd like it better with a wing actually.
