John = That silver car looks positively beautiful - tell your freind good luck with it! Very similar look to what I am trying to acheive albeit using different components. The car has gorgeous lines to it...and I love the low, elegant look, it really compliments the car overall.

What wheels is he getting again?

Since the bumper extends farther than the exhaust, will that affect the paint job on your kit?

Love the kit... but IMHO, you should have painted it body color. Going the black or CF skirt with a Silverstone or Silver looks more natural... but your Sunset color is too contrasting with the black. I'm sorry, but it does scream Rice.

It's nice that you have the "*****" to be different and you dare to be different. But from the looks of you car, it seem like you're trying too hard to be different. Kinda like Rodman when he colored his hair all different colors and wore a wedding dress. He's screaming for attention... trying way too hard to be different.

Did the person you bought the kit from already paint it Super Black?

It would look better if the kit was like a thin strip around the car. This kit goes up too high. Now it looks like you installed body parts from a black Z.

Alot of people had the same things to say, but when they saw it in person they changed their opinion.I must admit the pictures do NO justice for the car..And now I have a carbon fiber hood so it looks a litlle more matched..if that makes any sense.

I have the Stillen type 1 wing on there and it was just replaced due to a manufacturing defect in which the sunlight actually melted it , causing a softball size dent in the center of it...Stillen replaced the wing with alot of reluctance, but after I posted pictures of it and their reply on here, they changed their tune The new wing is alot thicker and I think the problem has been corrected..I must admit, Stillen does have the sweetest wing out there right now..I just put the Kaminari ram air hood on and my car is currently in the auto show in the Jacob Javits convention center in NY so I will post pictures of it soon...

I just think the black comes up too high other than that looks good.

You should paint the top half of the side skirt and the rear bumper sunset lemans so the black part wouldn't look so high.
