very nice ... i really like the look. move the license plate to the center; it's distracting to the side

Nice car! I think the mods are a little strong. Maybe without the decals.

I have to admit that I laughed out loud at the triple wing look



What wheels are you running?

Those are SSR GT3 rims...same ones I have on mine. Good choice!

Wing looks kinda whack though...like the rest.


BTW- 7mm spacers goes a long way on the SSR's. I'm running them and they sit completely flush.

Imaginative. Not necessarily my cup of tea, but in line with the 2010 RS.

Are the three wings photoshop? that has to go!!

Get some spacers for those wheels. I bet 15mm or even 21mm may fit if you roll the rears. i can help you calculate what will fit if you know the offsets.

OOps just realized someone else had posted about spacers as well.

That is terrible.... First off, the orange and red clash so bad on the brake/wheel & wing/tail lights, then the decal.... im so thrown off i cant even tell if its red or orange, it almost looks like its a whole different color on its own. Then safety orange grills? with 2 wings?.....whos idea was all this?

Suggestions; Paint all the orange on the front of your car black, take the mesh out and use the original grills in black the car came with, if you want lights, use the TA splitters and work the LED strips in them. Take the decals off... and in an attempt to stand out as your trying to do, I would powedercoat your wheels red, centercaps too! match the brake calipers and paint your mirrors red to match, that will pull the tail lights through the theme of the car... Good luck

Lastly.... take those headlight covers off!

LOL
Just to address a few comments that have been made
1) Not sure why the colors look off in the photos, but they match!
2)The rear wing/s only show IF I raise them up other that you only see the top wing.
3)The mesh in the front it was black before then others said "oh you should paint it"
4) The wheels again are as I like them
And last but not least with the negative comments, I am glad that this is my car and done the way I wanted it. I posted the photos just to show my project, why some of you always feel then need to make negative remarks about others projects is beyond me. If it is not your cup of tea then so be it thanks for the input thou. WOW

GOD bless each and everyone of you!
