Default A "Hot One" in New Orleans (Pics Included)

Finally took the opportunity at a recent show in the Big Easy to snap a few shots of the 'new look'. Changes since last time include: painted fascia, painted hood, painted roof, painted halo, tinted windows, black spyders, stainless hoses with a & n fittings.
