Sure, what would you like to know? Easier that way. I have so many upgrades on this car, it would take me a while to list everything.

Very nice, sharp looking car!
Are those turbo wheels NB or WB offsets?

I think that looks Outstanding, not to much, just enough in my opinion.

Mind sharing where you bought the stuff and how much it ran you?

Any better pics of the rear spoiler? I like that much better than the huge ones.

i like the front and back but sorry, i think the side skirts look kind of ridiculous. way too bulky like they are meant to have side pipes in them or something. and you even have a "4" (i.e. your rear quarters already are wider than a 2, yet those skirts still bulk out way past that). take a look at GT's/RSs's - definitely more understated and blend in more seamlessly with the panels they are near. yours remind me somewhat of "boy ricer" hondas etc or whatever they call them.

sorry man, not trying to be mean - lke i said i dig the front and rear - just saying IMHO...

I have to agree with Spiffyjiff - I like the front and rear but the rockers just don't look as nice as the rest of your car. Really nice car otherwise.

Point taken. I wasn't originally going to do the skirts. I bought the package and had my body shop do the bumper first then the tail. I asked if the the front and rear blended without the skirts. It needed something to flow, so I went with them.
