Default Back from the B Shop

Well, I think it's not for everyone but I love it! Wasn't sure how it would look without any other cosmetics, but I'm diggin it. Body shop shot the whole care with fresh paint, all hail dents out, did a great job and came out within budget. Overall I'm really happy. Except that it only lasted a week before getting shot by a BB gun and now wears another dent.

I would say consider tinting the windshield lightly and get a carbon fiber hood. Would even out the look quite a bit.

Yeah I already knew I would have to get darker tint. Don't mind because it's no a really good tint job right now anyways. Had the chance to get a CF hood because they replaced mine, but I'm not really into unpainted CF anyway, besides I think it would clash with the black. I feel that next should come:

1) Tint (25% Maybe?)
2) Drop (Something cheap I don't need coilovers)
3) Wheels or Grill or... spacers?

Don't go too dark with the tint in front. It doesn't take much with the windows already tinted to make that windshield look pretty dark from outside.

Paint a CF hood! I know it's not cheap but it would look great. I agree with the others about blacking out the headlights.

From what I can see, the car would definitely benefit from spacers (if you're going to keep the oems) and a drop. If you want a cheap drop you can always invest in some used springs from the marketplace, some Tokico HP shocks and a cheap rear camber kit.
