Thanks

Yes, I'm doing the partial to begin with. I don't want to over-do the black on the front of the car. it already has the black scoop insert and grille

I thought about the VHT, but I'm not sure.

When I bought the car, it had a little stubby antenna and I couldn't pull in any good radio stations. I will probably downsize to a 14" soon.

They're the Powerstop rotors. They're holding up fine

I cut my antenna so it's level with the roof and it still picks up radio stations the same as before. Looks good too.

looks incredible man. only thing i would do is see if you could get the side "SS" emblems in the cream color like the front one, or viceversa so they both match. other than that, perfection!

Actually, I'm thinking about changing the SS grille emblem to black or red
