OUCH! Good spot!

(that will be $250 for the new fender and another $250 for paint and labor (or more) if you hit a small dip while turning right off the road.......don't ask me how I know - I agree - roll 'em right away.)

And that's just the right side....

Oh, and the left turn signal will be another chunk of $$.

But hey, congratulations on your excellent taste in automobiles.
You are obviously a man of great distinction.

Drive it like you stole it!

Looks good

Only complaint I have is that license plate bevel that the 99+ front has, other than that, it's beautiful! Let's see some more!

Nice car...good find! The foglights, if anything, are partially blocking airflow to the oil coolers.

if you look close you can see it has a hood scoop, and is it even still unpainted carbon fiber? hard to tell...

There's not much we've not heard yet - humor us.

Sweet car.
