Goddamn it fooled me but it looked just a bit off. The only thing I would say I don't like is the M engine cover. Very very good looking ride.

You did a very nice and clean conversion. I really still can't believe that all of these parts were retrofitted especially the CF hood!

Great looking car! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!

Thank you. It was a big project to fit all these pieces together, but it was done nicely.

really nice! how does that swissvax opaque wax works? I've always been curious, what are some benefits you see using that wax? My car is a Frozen White Metallic, but I'm scared of using waxes that might either bring the shine on my car or just damage. Thank you.

Hi,

This series it perfect for us with matt paint, so you can use this.

It's mostly for giving the paint protection, and the difference on mine was it gave it a bit more glow, no shine. Here is a picture of the boot, right side is waxed this swissvax opaque

nice! yeah I notice it gave it a darker shade, just a bit though I just notice it because I worked on paint almost all my life, lol is a good thing tho it looks good, I'm thinking about shooting for this wax I need something like this since there is not much available to us! Thanks again! Nice color choice, I was in between Frozen white or gray, I don't regret going white, but I'm sure I would've been very happy with gray too!
cheers!

Awesome work. Wish the car had some paint so we could see some of that great Swissvax shine.

I LOVE frozen grey... def would be the color I'd do if I would wrap my car.

I love your car... but I do not love your wheels... that is my only thing I'd change. Sweet ride otherwise!
