Not left raw carbon fiber, but painted body color. Just curious about what it might look like, and I'm looking for pictures, if anyone has any.

Thanks.

I thought your going with East Bears? What are you going to do with the poor lighting? I believe H3 HIDs will fit in the Hi-Beam pod, which Im going to get later. Well, hope it turns out good

He's talking about his *stock* pop-up headlight cover...

BTW, while we're on the subject of C-West sleek lights... anyone ever figure out why AARotary's covers stuck up an inch or so above his bumper? I know they fit better than that if you take half a minute to install them properly, especially with a C-West bumper, so what gives?

A lot of people oooed and ahhhed over his car, and he always had expensive new parts, but never said what his job was when people asked.
his exhaust=$3000 trust titanium (i think it was trust, but it was a $3k full ti exhaust)
thats an example of how expensive the parts on his car were.
Then one day a moderator found out from a site/friend that had an article on his site (an online store) about how he let aarotary stay at his house, and aarotary stole his fathers credit cards and whatnot. it turned out him his brother and wife had been doing this for a long time. and he tried to come back and explain to the forum that it was all his brother, then he disapeared

i also noticed this too, and knew C-West products were to fit ten times better than that...

i soon found out that his car had previously been in an accident and there was frame damage.
