Nice build, bro. If u're asking for 2 pennies then here's mine:

1. Molded lip (cuz u balla like that)

2. Quad exhaust instead of larger one fart can (I kid, I kid). Ur rear is begging for it ( no pun intended)

3. If u only have cf on hood, I would repeat it on the mirror caps. (Let's not get too cray cray with cf tho)

4. Interior: fiber optic headliner (if any IS can pull it off, it's urs).

5. Diamond stitched 2 tone leather.

6. Do nothing. Ur car is already killer as is. Put the game in the morgue. Toe'd em all off already.

But then again, u only placed 2nd a few weeks ago... I kid, I kid.

I would really love to see a much more aggressive rear lip/trunk wing. IMHO your rear is now not aggressive enough to go with rest of the car; it was perfect for when you still had the isf front/Wald front. I think your car is the only 2is out there that can pull off a rb/voltex wing. It'll also go well with your overall race car theme.

It's been exciting to watch your progression! Sick build..

Btw what kinda finish is your wheels?

I told you already the carbon fiber pillars and carbon fiber roof spoiler and the carbon fiber license plate frame and the carbon fiber inserts in the emblems and the carbon fiber steering wheel. That enough? Lol

I wouldn't go with the Voltex cause HKS350 already had it. I do like the quad exhaust idea.

Pleez, no big rear wing (cuz u ain't hungry enuff for rice).

And since u're in the show scene, maybe a light show is in order. Here's some inspiration:

Youre right, i do like the carbon exposed, even if that is a deal breaker for some. I would only ever change to a reddish/orange paint job but it would require i change too many other things on the car (Wheels, seats, etc) so i will keep white, i love SFP anyways.

1. Depends if i do a lip or a splitter. But molded lip would be dope, if i design something nice at least.
2. Yeah i want GTR trip possibly, if they fit
3. I've contemplated this, but i dont think it would look nice overall with the car.
4. I <3 crazy LED's/lighting like Japan... definitely a wish list to design and do.
5. I dont think i can do much of this, my car isnt a VIP car, even if it does have a lot of the influences.
6. Cheapest option, I'm sold

I agree, i really want to add SOMETHING to the rear, it's soft now. A wing is a little too bold i feel, and i dont know how it would work with the molded trunk...
The wheels are powder coated with a metallic chrome base and a type of candy red top with clear powder atop that.

hahaha I'm glad people like you and I exist, where there is no such thing as too much carbon.

Definitely need this. I need to see who can restitch it, or if its possible.

Light show would be awesome. I'm ok with that level of rice.
