Day 9 Taking a break...




Day 9 Taking a break while my LENOX metal blades arrive....I decided to work on the mock up of the new body that I want to build in fiberglass.... (I know ...I know M3 fenders...) wider by 1" all over then the stock M3 I want to put some nice 16x9 wheels with the biggest tires I can fit since am going to be pushing lots of power with no traction control....
