I finally got KI3T back from the body shop today. The hood pins came in the mail today and will be installed tomorrow along with the scanner. Here's a preview!

There's also a surprise coming later in the weekend!

Vinyl stripes will come in 2 months. I've got the let the paint cure on the hood for 60 days.

Looks good so far man!

I thought about the hood pins but opted out of them...never found a set that I really liked or that worked quite like they should.

Heres a look at Matt's scanner I made for him before I sent it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSSU_zexZy0
It is insanely bright! Just as bright as mine from the show! :shock:

You guys hit me up on youtube if you want one or pm me here also.
I made it to have 3 rows of High flux LEDs just like my scanner from the show. :good:

I am now working on the HUD UV laser for me Matt,iphil & others.
And I am working on a new 'stealth mode' UV scanner.

ETA for KI3T Voice Orb sales: 1 week
ETA for KARR Voice Orb: 2 months

thery nice but the one from the show is more thiner I think no? And the trailing effect is better on the one from the show you have

taoworm2323 · Post by **taoworm2323** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 7:51 am

No the one I built for Matt is EXACTLY as wide as mine from the show. Mine has 3 rows and so does the one I made for Matt. It even has the exact same number and type of LEDs as the one from the show.

Not bad for a $550 dollar option compared to over $4000 huh? :lol:

I made this so you guys could afford a scanner that wasn't too small or wasn't bright enough. There will only be about 15 made by me so let me know if you want me to make more. :good:

There are only 2 maker of KR scanners that will fit a Mustang shelby hood.
The official scanner for $4200.00 (and there's only one left)
And my scanner for $550

With this your KI3T will be the hit of any car show!

Slade · Post by **Slade** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 1:50 pm

Yeah I would definatly take the $550 one over the $4k one.Its just too bad I dont have a mustang to put it on

Finally got the hood pins and lenses/diffusers mounted this morning. Scanner and 'surprise' will be revealed tonight! :twisted:

Here's a preview:

Sorry, the car's filthy BTW.
Yes I will be taking the GT emblems off, however I won't be using the 'Snake' emblems.

Pierre · Post by **Pierre** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 2:40 pm

ok so just a better tralling effect? lol

Actuay I can't even afford a 500 $ scanner so I have to wait

Slade · Post by **Slade** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 3:47 pm

So what Emblems you using?

taoworm2323 · Post by **taoworm2323** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 7:15 pm

Damn Matt that looks so awesome man! :shock:

I am speechless.
The blue reflection from the sky in the brand new paint job looks awesome against the scanners deep red. :good:

And the wheels are so damn cool!
My god man...just beautiful

Your K3T is becoming a reality! And at record pace!

Pierre · Post by **Pierre** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 5:38 am

wow so cool do you have more pics of the wheels ?

Knight-Armen · Post by **Knight-Armen** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 5:44 am

Great work, man! It looks even better than the Mustang from the series!

Knight Racer · Post by **Knight Racer** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 8:21 am

Looks cool.Will you be painting the grey lines to match the series?

The stock brakes look tiny with the 20" rim.

Yes I will be installing vinyl stripes, but I have to wait 60 days until the paint it fully cured on the hood.

I've got to give huge props to Taoworm for the scanner! I think the result came out looking better than I wanted! Thanks so much man! :good:

I hope to do plenty of business with you in the future when I get to the interior of KI3T!

Pierre · Post by **Pierre** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 11:03 am

tiny but still nice ,you can always upgrade you'r stock brake for the brembo's^^

Slade · Post by **Slade** » Mon Sep 21, 2009 12:21 pm

Yes they are the Shelby Alcoa 20" rims. The same ones used on KITT as well as the Shelby Super Snake.
