Its nice but it would really look better if you paint the roof and rear hatch black to blend it in. GO FOR IT!!!!!!!

Looks good man, but if it were me I would two tone it paint the roof and rear hatch to match hood that would look sweet. But hey if you have plans to make it faster and handle better that's whats really important. Good luck on your projects up coming.

haha she really doesn't sit high. pictures def give that appearance now that ppl say it. if i lower it i'llscrape in and out of every parking lot. haha.

i'm gonna search but anyone seen a good 2tone redline with black? think i would have to get new wheels then, might be overkill with black wheels too.
