let me pull a simon here, not good. Your headlights are awful, those things needs buffing asap. Also your lip and rear bumper body kit thing dont match your cars black color. Plus the lip isnt even the same length as your bumper.

Once you do your paintjob, it should look alot better. The headlights needs a serious buffing though.

I clicked on the 2nd picture and i thought you blacked out your headlights or something. And then i read the comments and it said you needed serious buffing so i clicked on another picture and wow.

i think it will look great after you buff the headlight, clean up the installation of the lips and paint them body color... oh, and you need side skirts to match the rear lip, i think it is lower now than the skirts..

overall the car looks good. rub some toothpaste on your headlights and see if that helps. i, too, thought they were blacked out at first.
