You mean: Kevin Hart has a lot of money.  That's a half a million dollar car.

Expensive or not, it's a cool car.  


KH wasn't driving when the Cuda got wrecked.  He was a passenger.

I think it's overkill with this mod there's not too much originality left almost looks like something
they would build today with everything being the same color.  :shruggy:

What chrome? The car is hand built with carbon fiber replica parts.

Fiberglass can be chromed.  IIRC they cover the part with a copper-infused paint and then polish & plate it like metal.  I imagine the same thing would work on a CF part too.

Expensive?  Yeah, for a beater.  Not for this car.  The plating job would cost a fraction of the price of the CF panel itself.  
 


But these Speedkore project cars are meant to be advertisements for the company.  They're trying to show off the CF parts, not hide them.

It's a broad statement meaning a significant number of resto mods having painted chrome.  :2thumbs:

Chrome vinyl wrap on a bumper. 

It's looking like a better option than the high-end chrome paints.  The wrap has more durability and it's cheaper to deal with.

I'm not a fan of the Gray color.

I like that gray.


Painted bumpers usually look better on expensive builds.  

But then, they only show up on expensive builds when it was a pure artistic choice.  That probably raises the success rate.

I'm pretty sure Evolution and Tantrum are 2 separate cars.  Speedkore's Instagram page shows a picture of them sitting next to each other.

Speedkore's website advertises a starting price for a new 'Evolution' build at $400k.  I'm thinking Hellraiser is a third car.

Good point.  Glad to see generations of insidious and systemic racism solved.  ::)   :insertsarcasm:
