It's great to see someone else who doesn't let those low-life MF'rs keep them down. Come back stronger than before! Good work man.

Damn dude, I wonder what kind of settlement you made with the insurance to even want to rebuild that car. Sorry that ish happened, but your definitly bringing it along. Did they find the actual people?? I would beat their head in until their brains came out of their *******.

Yeah but the thing is he got his car in pieces. It isnt the same sick car it was. I personally dont understand the rebuild either, I would just go with something stock and together. That thing had its shocks and motor ripped apart. Think they gave much thought of taking care of the wiring and the panels as they stripped it??
