Hmm... Cool about the duck tail. Have you thought of putting a Turbo front bumper with a Turbo S lip? The GT2 front splitter works really well with the GT2 tail but is a bit much for the duck tail IMO.

Thatcher, Is the car done? The weather's been crappy for tennis lately. Do you have a choice of which state are you registering the car in?

The car is road ready, yes. Should be driving it starting Tuesday. I am in Seattle but I'm registering the car in Maine for a number of reasons

Any good ideas?...
My last plate was "VAROOM"

I really like the gt2 front splitter.. the RS front lip is too mild of a look for me. I think the gt2 front goes nicely with the ducktail.

That is too funny! I'm in Seattle.. had a family member register it for me back home this morning. I'll be back in Maine from mid July - mid August though, we should meet up then!

I thought of DUKTAIL yesterday but didn't suggest it because it's seven letters. TAIL with the duck image is perfect. Get it changed man!
