Congratulations Marcus! Although there were other fitted cars there, most had flaws...you're doing it the right way....

Thanks guys.

Part of my show routine. Drive up on blocks, install splitter, drive down off blocks. Remove splitter prior to leaving the show.

I'll be posting up pics that I've found from various sites from The Infamous in the near future, but wanted to share this video from one of our Canibeat video guys Loren Haleston. He does such sick work.

Appreciation

I've gotta admit when first saw this progression thread i honestly did not know anything about modding... i knew a bit about exterior, suspension, and breather mods, but nothing about the motor. I've always appreciated this build, but found a higher level of respect since my knowledge on modding has extensively matured from before.

Now that I'm in the process of getting my engine bay blinged out I've come to realize how much more i appreciate this built. as you can see how active I've been looking through progression threads, discussions, and the market place for research and parts. this and JDM Caines and SD Genius' and a few other threads i always look back on to research what was done and always learn something new with a better understanding of how it was done. All different builds, but on the same level of uniqueness. **** gets expensive as hell!! thank you and everyone that has helped me out thus far!

^I too have learned so much with modding this car. Before this car I didn't know much about cars at all. Now I know a LOT about VQs and a ton about cars in general. Learned so much from several friends on here who took the time to show me how to do things on my car. Really appreciative.

Chris (JDM Cain) and I were lucky enough to have a photo shoot done by Joey Lee yesterday for a dual Super Street feature. The feature is expected to be run in the December 2012 issue.

Still in shock by all of this, very exciting. Thank you to all who have supported our builds!
