interesting, do you think rear bumper is not important?

Your car has the exact look I wanna go with, with the carbon wing blade and carbon mirrors. I may just add the LED taillights.

What are the cons of not changing the radiator and plastic?

If you dont change the front radiator and the two water tubes you cant place the gt2 orig. plastic that cover the radiator but it is not a great difference at the end. Remember that you must change the two side plastics radiators with the orig. gt2 ones.

I would rather have the turbo with GT2 looks because I value the all-wheel drive. No one ever mentions this when comparing the two cars...

Werks 1 kit would be better and would keep the car semi-original unlike a Wicked car
