Default Only took like four years.....
Like the title says, finally got the WS9 (US EXOTICS) completed. Just finished bolting the hood back on and stopped at the first gas station to take a pic. Still got to wetsand and buff it and put the grills back in.

My friend even "modified" the hood so that it doesn't rub on my lid

Looks awesome and the fit looks great!

Where is the black grilles and black Ram Air vinyl? Will it take another 4 years to update your signature?

As a fellow father of a 3.5 y/o son and a 20 month old daughter, I completely understand how stuff gets put on the backburner.

The hood looks great.

Yea I really thought the car looked good with the sleek beak, but at the same time I always liked the aggressive look of the WS6.

Thanks everybody.

I have the same hood and love it. Mine never rubbed on my lid though, guess thats a hit or miss. Only 'problem' is when it really downpours for a while the water trickels down the vents through the hood and drips onto the belt and squeaks like a ****
