Wheels look good. Not a big fan of the front grille. The black kinda makes your emblem disappear. I would remove your side moulding and move the badges up about an inch on the sides. Looks like they are sitting on it.

I like it. It's got a similar vibe to mine. I agree with the others, ditch the side molding. Also maybe pop a black billet grill in the front.

Lovin the CSRT4, just traded mine in... now I kinda miss it.

On a side note, the Camaro looks good.

That grill looks sexy as hell, no way I would cover it with a billet grill.

The emblem does blend a little too much, maybe get one with the 28 in some color besides black and it will be perfect.
