If you hadn't said anything, I would not have noticed, besides the tape of course. Looks good to me.

If you have to go cheap, you did what you should do. Purchase items that are knock offs of more expensive/popular parts. That way stylisticly the car looks good.

It looks fine. Throw some fatter rear tires on there and it'll look a lot like my car.
