Tony Carrillo's initial plan was to give the 2007 VW GTI Fahrenheit to his son. "When I showed him the car," Carrillo remembers, "he didn't want it!" That's where the fun began! His first modification to the GTI was a set of new wheels and tires. "I then added a custom sound system, and then custom air ride," he states. The custom orange carbon roof wrap was then installed. "Well, I thought I was done," Carrillo mentions, "but then I installed a Thunder Bunny body kit to the car."
