Looks good, not sure on the $$$ though https://www.facebook.com/Liquid3DDesign1...DlI&fref=nf Looks like they did the chrome work on the new Lutz 57 http://www.superchevy.com/events/breakin...street-outlaws/ Faster, Faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death... 71 Swinger - slowly collecting dust/parts 66 Belv.

My son and I have looked into this same system for us and just did not pull the trigger. Seems to hold up very well and can be done on anything. You can search them on facebook if you want to see it done in real time. "I am not ashamed to confess I am ignorant of what I do not know." "It's never wrong to do the right thing"

I do wonder how well it will hold up to high speed bug strikes though. oh and it was pricey!
