Brief Story
(Project Shadow Matrix Overview ) :
I have been working on this project since Feb/03. It has been an ongoing project in which I have learned a lot, it has been hard work getting my ride the way I want it to be. I think I am doing a good job and hope you agree. This was originally a Matrix Base Model (Power Nothing Version) I have little by little changed it to my style. This is my daily driver and tour car so if you happen to be in PR you might see me around. I like autoshows and enjoy exhibitions not only to show off my ride of course but in these events you get to see a lot of great rides and inventions, seems there is always something new around...
I hope you like my Ride, comments are welcome.
Please take a moment and rate my ride...

I am done with the Carbon Fiber Fender Flares instalation. Basically I custom built these myself. Got the main parts from bodykitnation.com then the parts where cut and trimed to fit my ride and I also had to create the bases that hook up the parts.
Check out the custom front and rear "TOW HOOKS" also finally got the Grafix like I wanted them...

Holloween Weekend PIMP'N '09
To make space in the back and fix some power issues battery got moved from the back to the front. For this the INTAKE had to be re-worked and some cabling had to be re-done. Had some issues with the AIR Conditioner and Reverse lights, turns up the cables for these things are in the pack of cables that crosses over the Engine and they where damaged so the AIR and Reverse light failed from time to time. The whole thing was done again with better cables and covered better. All I need now is the Engine cover which I think I will get the TRD Carbon Fiber cover. Still wish I can get the Supercharger, maybe Santa will remember me this year ;p
Had to Ditch the NANKANG Tires 225/30/20 and go with Falken Tires 225/35/20. Road's in PR don't get along with thin tires. I also think it looks much better with these NEW FALKEN! Now I just got to get a hold of some ArmorAll ;p
