no offense but it's not that drastic of a change. definately not night and day, same rims, same basic color, yea you "faded" the ground effects, and installed a 4th gen wing but from a picture stand point not much has changed.

Although I would have to see the faded ground effects in person, I don't think it looks bad by any means. It looks good!

You want a night and day difference, get some rims for that thing. The car looks almost the same in each picture, boring. Spice it up with some chrome or aluminum 18's. Nice work though.
