The photos don't do justice on the mods. I'm sure it looks real "mean" up close.

Love everything especially the aero bits....BUT I hate to say it bro I feel like I'm stabbing you with a knife but the wheels just don't flow with the car IMO but everything else is dope as*! Maybe some coils will change the look of tge wheels-an agressive stance makes anything look so much hotter Btw how much $ was your cf roof spoiler? I want that to go with my cf lip and fog coversImpressive mod list btw

jctheplaya, the worst thing you could have done--with the way you setup the car--is leave the chrome ring around the rim!!!

It looks good painted all one color (the rim). I suppose I'm a tad bit biased on this layout / scheme / theme. I like it, simple and clean, but yet the mods you added are quite the $$$ haha!!!

Looking good jctheplaya Rims aren't my favorite but they aren't bad on the car. Glad everything worked out for you and you were able to get all the parts

I like the look of your whole car...it's sick! For your trunk, did you lower the latch that holds the trunk down? That's what I did to make the trunk line up as close to the oem trunk. Enjoy your car man and have fun with it!

Thank you all for your generous comments! It makes me feel good that I made a decent looking car

Yes it did cost me quite a bit, but I think majority of the money was well spent

I was trying to go for the grey and just carbon fiber look, i didn't want any other chrome to interfere with the look I was going for.
