This is when I decided I wanted to be part of the whole stance game, got some 18x10.5 -3 Es6 and did some playing with the fitment til I got it to where I wanted it. As any other car-head, got bored quick.

Then I heard of this new product called Kandy Pearls, so I decided to give it a try. Changing the look of the car entirely.

And last after removing the wrap, my paint got destroyed. But luckily I was already starting the whole RHD build so I really didnt care since I was going to re-do the whole car entirely. This is where it all starts..

It was like a little piece of heaven just waiting to be purchased. So I negotiated with the price til I got em around the price I wanted and made my move.

So after another shop almost made me loose the car because they claimed they knew what they were doing, I brought it back to XMP to do everything there. You can admire some of their insane builds in the background.

RHD firewall was already in, and ready to be welded into place. At this point I was seriously thinking I was never going to be able to drive the car again.. But I was wrong.

Then we mocked up the dash to make sure it all fits, and everything fit perfectly. So we were ready to advance into the next step.

Then we have the engine bay, after putting most things in. Just admire that brake tuck! Only one in the US. And Yes, Wipers were removed. Color is Paradise Blue Green Pearl, thats why it looks blue in some pics, and green in others. But, see what I mean, even though its not fully shaved it looks great!

Car is pretty much complete at this point. Scored a nice set of RPF1 with 285/40 Nitto NT555s for a great price. Sad part is that theyre too big for the car, but no worries. Body will be pulled and plated to create an OEM style wider body. To properly fit these monsters. And yes the car will have AC, but no Power Steering. Planning on boosting down the road.

Installation was easy and clearance was good. Read that the sway bar was going to be a problem but it went right in, no problems.
