no more side molding...thoughts?

took the side molding off and debadged it(temporary until my 2nd GEN. badges are made) I think this cleaner look compliments the Y3F body kit alot more! Any thoughts? Any ideas? Rims are on the to do list, either torq thrust M or some z06 style black deep dish..orange/black/white/retro is the theme I wanna shoot for.

Looks good. I would do rims, drop, tint, and a grill. To me it's too much white with that grill

ive gotten that a few times when I did the white grille thread... some black headlights should even the white out, if it does not, gonna go with the SLP-Bowtie grille, maybe do the 2-tone black/white paint mod on it

painting the vents on your grill might look cool and tone it down a bit. I like it better then the plane blk plastic thats for sure

It looks good!! Removing the side molding is a must. But if you drop it and put on some TTM's you'd be golden!! And the key to white is black, it's contrast. If you can make whatever that is black on a white car pop out, it makes all the difference!
