Thanks for the comments everyone! Joe... you should know by now that there are very few forums that I'm not a part of. lol Although, I'm not sure what brought me here four and a half years ago. Haha! I'm surprised as to how well my car's been received by those who are mostly on the opposite end of the car spectrum (tuners, drifters, old school BMW owners, etc.). Most agree (as I do also) that the SRT team did a great job in designing the factory wheels, and the engineers over at Factory Reproductions were smart enough to capitalize on the fact that most would love to see them made a bit larger than stock. I'm sure they've gained quite a bit of new business due to their willingness to produce every SRT wheel in a plus size. Very nice quality also.

Although there are always opinions that peak my interests enough to respond to, you have to pick and choose your battles wisely. I've only received one comment in the past 4 years of owning my two LX's that really bothered me very much. It had to do with someone's opinion that people who own these vehicles are somehow directly linked to the topic of welfare/low income. Interesting to say the least. Behind every negative comment, there's always motivation to improve. So I always appreciate what people have to say.

From the sounds of it though, I should've raised the car up to stock height and posted those pics for the J-Body folks. Probably would've been better received that way.

Thanks man! I have no clue why I registered at that time. I had some friends who were into the J-Body scene, but I don't really have a clue who those friends were anymore. lol

Wait, we have our own scene? lmao jk

OOOOOMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Simans your car could get an impatint(sp) man up man. I fell in love with 300Cs when my dad rented one and i got to cruise around in it... it wasnt the Hemi but it was the NICEST car i have ever driven in, and it wasnt slow for not being the hemi. Nice ride. I drove a Charger a week before(once again not the hemi) and the the 300C was WAAAY better of a ride and i actually think it was a tad quicker tbh. The Charger sounded better for my taste though, but it was all bark and no bite. It sounded like it was going 100 when it was really just bogging trying to get off the off ramp onto the highway. lmfao.

amazing man.

Sick car! Only thing that it needs now is shaved handles and lose the chrysler emblem on the trunk.

Thanks for the comments! I've got some minor body work being done in January, but other than that all that will be changing on the exterior next year will be the wheels.

If he hadn't rolled his car, I probably would've held onto that grudge a bit longer. Can't say much now though. lol In regards to the body work, I'm going to be filling the license plate holes in the front bumper, filling the area where the emblem goes on the Grip Grill, and re-shooting the entire front end. I've been wanting to get that all done since I bought it. It'll give me something to do this winter.
