Your car looks absolutely amazing. i think it looks great w/ the stock wheels, paint them black and polish the lip.

Thanks guys! Tint is 5% on sides and on the back its 5% over 15%... so its almost double limo tint lol its very dark. Yes i do plan on making the scoop funcional but right now im kinda scared cutting it, is it pretty easy to do? Heres a few more close up shots.

I'd like to see someone do it, because I can't seem to think of a way it would work. With the TPI I could see the throttle body right below the hood, so its not really far enough forward to make an air box.

Is that chrome around the windshield? If so did you do that? id like to have something to replace that crappy plastic rubber around the windshield.

Anyway nice car, the hood and spoiler look really good, especially with the black paint.

wow dude your car looks awesome, to bad the forum resized that pic a little but it still looks great. We definitely need to get together and take some pics! Send me a PM or something when your car is ready to go.

JimmyDavidson: I too have the crappy plastic rubber around the windshield, i donno how it came out so reflective but its not chrome.
