roaming the streets of Chi-Town.

the loudest, most obnoxious looking GT3 on the road
(at least for midwest standards... probably Plain Jane on the West Coast).

Just got my car back after some customization:

-Cargraphic Kit 6 with Sport Switch
-RS rear decklid + carbon blade
-Black + Orange wheel combo
-Orange striping

still mulling on window tints, orange + carbon side view mirrors + swapping side orange stripe with one that have GT3 logo on it.

enjoy!
Steve

Very nice. It blows away a lot of our cars on the west coast.

By the way, did you do the whole install on the rear wing (fan, etc.), or did you pull the parts off? Thanks.

But amazing as is also! keep up the good work!

yeah, the deck lid was completely swapped with the one from the RS... which includes the fan and all other parts.

Car looks very sweet - but watch out as some areas of chicago the roads can be killer to wheels. I must have bent at least 2-3 rims over the years while I was living out there.

I LUV the black wheels, orange lips - do you have anymore closeups?

Don't worry as another have said this car will turn heads in any region!

I live right downtown... if you see a dude in a Guards Red giving you a thumbs-up, you know who it is! Cops are such asshats in this town that I'd never do tint, ended up taking it off my Aston after getting harassed endlessly by jealous cops.

Car looks awesome. Love the mods, and im a fan of the other changes you mentioned. I just got back from Chicago for the first time two weeks ago, i had a blast (and i drove there from NYC). But i dont know how you guys can tell the difference from the cops and the cabbies... both look the same. Anyway, enjoy the ride it looks terrific
