pretty good accually...im not really doin much else except build my car for the coming season. hopefully running USDrift around the east coast. I worked at a body shop as an apprentice painter under a friend. & I opened a shop here in pittsburgh with two of my buddies/roomates/team mates... specializing in Paint, Bodywork, Wheel fitment, and fabrication. "Baller Genetics: Drift and VIP lifestyle" (were fans of Westcoast wheel fitment and style). were fully redoing our cars, ground up restoration into pure built track cars (street legal of course... ) and we'll have a few shop cars running around this spring with that VIP look to them. just a small shop but we have our nitch. I have a fairly large paintbooth setup, we change and mount tires. no lift as of yet but were working on it. and we have a master fabricator (my old friend) who does our welding and fabrication work. (worked for a company called "domination chasssy" for two years)

right now my cars torn down to a compleate shell, were finnishing the cage (adding A pillars, halo, and X braced door bars) stitch welding parts of the frame, A friend Dan from a company called "Secret Element" is desighning a V-mount setup for S14's (my cars the test subject). and im painting the car inside and out full over paintjob, then im goin to re-install the wireing i stripped down to bare essentials and put the car back together with the Origin Aero.

You'll see it'll be flashy/classy... the hardest part is chooseing a color... it was black/pink last season just to be funny. but im accually considering painting the car crazy pearl white with pearl pink accents, either that or bayside blue/white or vice versa. its a competition car so it'll be flashy and I love pearl so all my paint will have crazy effects to it... lol

I want to see pics of your car when it was black and pink lol and for the record I think you should go with pearl white w/ pink accents when you paint it!! Cant wait to see you in the spring
