Corvette: Modded
I've been waiting for 2 months to finally post these pictures, but my beloved 1998 Corvette is finally back from the shop, with all sorts of goodies put on! I got the car new, and she has just 20,000 on the clock. Up until August of 2008 it was bone stock. Now, thanks to some great people, it feels, looks, and sounds perfect.

AI Design in Tuckahoe, NY hooked me up with the sick red suede inserts for the Sparco seats. Check out their sick gallery of work at AIDesign.com. You may have heard of them, after all, they have worked on some high-profile cars such as Alex Roy's Polizei 144 BMW M5, and the Audi "Blackbird" R8.

Front Wheels

Rear Wheels

The wheels are truly a work of art. George at Proformance Industries designed them and created them from scratch. He is THE MASTER of custom wheels, and has created designs for 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, several of the Knicks, Giants, and Yankees, and others for whom off the rack wheels simply won't do. As you can probably imagine, I'm one of those people. This is the only set of these wheels ever created, but they can be re-created in any size for any car. So if you wanna roll like me, literally, hit those guys up.


All of the installation work was performed by Anthony Contarino at B&A Motorsports in Mamaroneck, NY. He is an amazing tech and is very talented at setting up a street/track car. All the work is always perfect the first time.
