got to think about this one a bit. some nice cars with a lot of work done to them this month.
 
picked focus, has A LOT of work and quality parts...very close this month, all of the cars are on the same level of awesomeness :)
 
Fantastic entries this month, all so clean!! Had to go with halo0, I have a sweet spot for gray-scale cars with a bit of colour accenting.
 
Wow, good month. I have to go for the cleanest one though!
 
Damn, Focus' car is bananas. Not crazy bout the outcome but the time, money and work are all there. Goodjob dude
