lol the legend lives on! lol j/k yea man, just been busy. you're car is looking better and better every time i log on. I'm in same boat as you as far as appearance mods and wanting to add more touches of black. I'd really like to see some flat black mantas because I think it'll look good but i'm just not 100% sold on the idea. I know gloss looks good but i feel that'll be out of place since I don't have any other gloss on the car

Thanks man. Yeah, I think there are 3-4 more appearance mods I want to do.

1. Projector headlights, once 6LE gets them rolling, already whistlered.
2. 6LE front splitter paid gloss black.
3. Manta stripe (think I'm finally going to pull the trigger on it and if I put it on and hate it, it can always come off).
4. LT1 tails (smoked minus reverse portion) and smoked front side markers.

After that, I'm done with appearance mods, unless you consider a C6 Z06 BBK an appearance mod...lol
