No, the guy that won (playing need for speed or something) in SC was tagged with some ridiculous taxes (on a free car) so he turned around and sold it to me. He drove it about 2000 miles, once to a car show in Atlanta and Myrtle beach before I bought it.

yea, the gift taxes are insane. something like 50%

Very interesting way to end up with a car. I personally wouldn't change much of it as it is a one-off.

yeah, I was thinking that at first but I really dont know if I can live with so much vinyl on the car. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be taking at least the hood decals and the stripe off tonight. I'll post pics when I'm done so I can get some feedback on the rest.

I'd pull all the logos/decals off but leave the yellow stripe. Thats just me though.

nice and congrats!

too late lol. I removed the hood decals, window decals, and stipe. I left the decals on the skirts and low on the side, I think it looks pretty good. I'll post up some pics when I get some daylight tomorrow.

Ok Got all the vinyl I wanted to get off, Heres a quick walk around vid of the car. Let me know what y'all think.

Nooo! I loved the front lip!

yeah, the front lip accented the side skirts.... are you planning on taking off the side skirts also ?

Nice! Looking forward to it! Were you the original winner of the car? I saw it was won by someone in SC just by "playing video games." That's one heck of a prize to win, if so!

If the girl came with it good buy!

No, I'm keeping the side skirts and the rear lip on the car. Its a lot easier to get around v with it off the front. it looks a little unbalanced with it off in the picture, but in person it actually looks pretty good. I wish could have left it on but it was just too impracticable.

I saw that on AutoTrader. I was gonna buy it. But you beat me to it lol. I MIGHT do something like that on my nismo.
