Thanks
Yeah who would believe how much molded plastic costs.I got mine through the dealer at a very good price(i could not find a used one).
Badazz516(vin) got a used one from LVM a while ago.He paid less then me and it looks identical.So used is definately the way to go if you can find one.

I was told that this is a private event and the MM&FF wanted three "tuners" to bring three of their fastest trucks to do an independant comparison on how the particular "tuner" goes about making these trucks fast. It is not supposed to be any type of "heads up" racing deal, but if MM&FF is involved, I am sure the outcome as history has shown,will be JDM biased

How could it be biased? Many trucks go down the track. The quickest one wins.

Yea I know....it is just a way for Tuners to spread more buisness and what they can do. Which is a good thing.

Besides Vinnie....yours is very nice so they need it for the cover shot.
