 :lol: nah i didnt 'steal the show' with my 'acting'. It was hard to plain lie to him like that. That week my Cuda got wrecked, my dads car got stolen, he was pissed at me, and my mom was in the middle...you can only imagine how our house was.  :scared:


What do you want me to elaborate on the car?

What do you want me to elaborate on the car?
We saw the Motor, tranny build, some rear suspension components, and the sub box, besides some paint going on it was mostly about SEMA and the pranking, very little info on anything else. It was obvious there were some serious brakes & good looking wheels but no details, aftermarket seats but I at least didn't pick up on much else. Was the front suspension changed? Interior upgrades? How did they get the shiny trim look on the tail lights & hood edge. Any cool changes, WE NEED DETAILS MAN!! :grinyes:

Brakes were 13" Baers on all four corners. The seats were cobras that they briefly showed. They were recovered in suede, as well as the rears. Gauges are rebuilt by redline and their tach was added. Harms Auto pistol grip shifter. Door panels were recovered in leather, suede headliner i believe. New 15" Grant 'tuff wheel'. Interior is killer. Front suspension had tubular upper control arms, bigger sway bar, the air-ride stuff, and im not sure on anything else up there. The trim on the hood/grille and stuff is silver like the stripe in the roof.
