Don't mention it :]

@jpgh74 Thank you for the heads up, and suggestions. I appreciate that. :)

jpgh74 (June 11, 2020 @ 15:23)
the exhaust fire and brakelights are a bit out of position in both autosculpt body kits, and stock exhausts need internal texture.It would be nice to put nfs carbon performance. I know it is a process to make cars, I just suggest. U did a great work, man
