Pizzamanevo8's extreme makeover!

Well it's time to change things up! I sold my Longblock and turbo setup and I'm redoing everything. Complete color change, ect. Here is the old setup at motorama 2011









This the LFA Lexus pearl white that was chosen by a good friend, evom member Mitchubishi(awesome choice Mitch!) Thanks!










Its hard to see but the roof is flat black metalic thanks to Lightner Motorsports AKA Dlight customs. Also every part that was carbon is getting Flat Black Metalic including the bottom of the jdm rear bumper.


I will keep updating pics as the project continues.

Thanks. Just do it! My shade will be different than most because it is actually the paint from a LFA lexus. Just try to find one that is different from others. That is the advantage of a tri coat color!

Its gonna be painted also, but any thoughts? Im also ditching the jdm ix tails for the vii tails. I have the cusco front power brace that we are customizing it to fit the CBRD fmic. Anything that can be powdercoated is gonna be down. I also did some weight reduction to make up for my fata*s. Biggest thing is the curt brown mod, ceramic wheel bearings! Do it! The car rolls so easy with these on. I cant imagine when its under its own power moving. My painter asked me about what we did to make it roll so easy. Cause anyone that paints knows about pushing cars around with no engines! LOL! He said this was by far the easiest to push around. So you guys wanna hook up on these wheel bearings let me know!
