It's the prototype Impul style one that Eric is making. It didn't fit right in a few places so I've been working on it for the last couple weeks to make it fit. Still have a little way to go but I put some black primer on it to make it look a little better.

yeahhhh
its scary but
well worth it ..
at times im concsious of the traffic around me
feeling a bit confined so i let the flow go
past me as not to be stuck in a pile up ..
ive avoided a few scrapes because of it ...
i even watched a bus side swipe a car behind me
cuz he couldnt stop in time .. i jumped in the middle turn lane ..
then drove off ..

I live in Phoenix and there are a lot of big trucks with huge lifts and huge tires who drive like @ssholes and can't stop in time.
Tim, where are you located? I might have to stop by for a beer. Or maybe do happy hour somewhere. I work in North Scottsdale, and live in Chandler. It sucks. haha

Total overkill. And yes these weigh more than my RB kit did by quite a bit. I just don't care. My car is still very fast and they look soooooo amazing.
