Default some subtle changes

thought i'd share some changes I've done the last few weeks, which include:

1, red out rear lights
2, painted calipers
3, rear roof spoiler
4, rear trunk spoiler

the 2 spoilers create two horizontal lines/shadows which give some visual impact in a subtle way to the rear. let me know what you think, cheers.

Looks good. Are you keeping the two spoilers black?

Yea, make sense, still looks disconnected from the car,as if you really wanted a spoiler and th only one you could find was a black one. IMO

Wrap or hydrodip the lower diffuser in carbon fiber and hope someone fabricates a carbon fiber front lip for the non fsport to tie everything together. Then drop that bad boy. All done...Unless you want wheels...lol. My humble opinion and two pennies.
