When passion meets inspiration, an obsession is born.
Was there any unusual circumstances around how you acquired your car?
I purchased this car as a rolling shell with no interior no engine and 4 donut spares lol…
Was there more work on your car than you anticipated? Did you find a bucket of wiring worms, find some secret hidden problems…..
This car had wires and chords everywhere inside lol. So sorting everything out wasn’t exactly the easiest.
Are there any unique mods on your car? Hyper-rare parts, custom made parts…
The light up headliner , the trunk setup , the custom strut towers, lots of limited release titanium goodies.
Would you consider your car done in its current form? Or do you have a list of “to dos” still left?
Well it’s current form is actually in pieces in my garage so I definitely wouldn’t consider it done in it’s current form. Prefer to leave those “to dos” a secret for now.
What is the biggest problem you ran into on your build?
Trying to build one of the most common cars and keep it different than the rest!
If you had to do it again, would you build the same car?
Absolutely! This car has been so fun and made me soooo many good friends along the way!
Are you apart of a club or crew with your car?
My local squad Kostly Obsessions. We have all pushed each other so much to improve our builds and do good things in the community.
Is there any part/mod on your car you had to do a few times, or installed and then removed?
I have changed my trunk setup a couple times now until I was finally happy with it.
What is your favorite part on your car?
Trunk setup has to be for now. Me and one of my best friends have a lot of hours and memories building it.
