BULLETPROOF.

Bulletproof. An automotive vision of Marilyn Monroe, decked out in Kevlar, cruisin’ the mean streets of New York like it’s a fashion statement. Ready for battle, urban warfare on tarmac, she embodies a true street machine that backs up her looks with her bite. Bulletproof is always spotted with her owner, Jis of Vraceworks at the helm.

On the Highway, exotics see taillights. On the local streets, more than a few people have been known to nearly jump out of their shoes when her boost hits. The startling sound of what appears to be buckshots is just the sound of an angry b-series. Not just another pretty thing, this bubble is ready to crush the next dude’s pride.

Born in the Land of the Rising Sun, and raised Uptown, this civic brings beauty and bruises with a touch of class. A complete build, inside and out. What you expect is what you get. Kevlar all around, a first of it’s kind wheel set by Exospeed, 600 horses running wild and an interior that screams race, yet smiles for the camera.

A true street car, don’t be surprised to see Bulletproof sitting at your local gas station getting that “93”. Take a peek inside and you won’t find gutted doors. Not that there is anything wrong with that, because we have seen plenty of street beasts with the proper race setup. However, as enthusiasts of speed, power, and competition, its good to appreciate a build that’s all of the above, as well as a street car.

Bulletproof at the spa, aka Amable in the Heights. As you can see, all the ladies like the red GTR love to hit up the spa.
